Weather Update – November 19, 2022

Chilly today, snow showers tomorrow 🌨

No record breaking snow here like they have had out in Orchard Park. I remember seeing the rail crossing style gates on the Expressway Entrances in Western NY and thinking how novel they were – new at the time but good when the expressways are closed and blocked with snow.

Warming up mid weekend for Thanksgiving and then rain and snow next weekend when I was hoping to get up north. At some point I guess I’ll get out of town again. The following weekend I have the Pine Bush Hike. No idea how much snow will be up north I’ll have to study the maps more.

Daily Update – November 19, 2022

Good morning! Happy Opening Day. 🦌

It’s a remarkably chilly day for opening day of rifle season but that’s to be expected. Autumn was mild until it wasn’t.

Mostly sunny and 36 degrees at the Five Rivers Environmental Education Center. β˜€ There is a south breeze at 7 mph. πŸƒ. Temperatures will drop below freezing at around 5 pm. β˜ƒοΈ

I decided it would be a good day to explore the new Fisher Trail at Five Rivers Environmental Education Center 🚢 and also the Phillipin Kill Preserve along Fisher Boulevard. Pretty much what you would expect from a suburbanite nature preserve. I had never bothered to visit the Phillipin Kill Preserve before as I knew it wasn’t much but a swamp and a ridge but it was on the way. 🐦 Some nice benches there, might be good for birch watching in the spring and autumn. Fisher Trail is similar, thought it might be good for skiing 🎿 until the sign saying, 15 percent grade ahead. Only had to duck πŸ¦† out of the way of suburbanite joggers πŸƒ a few times.

My ankle is pretty much good 🦢 though it’s still a little sore especially when I put weight on it funny or I am hiking up a steep uphill. But I’m fine, I’ll probably hike ten πŸ”Ÿ miles after everything today. I know people say rest, but I think it’s sometimes best to keep muscles moving and not let them seize up. Maybe it’s Lyme again, been a bit sore lately. πŸ˜•
