Weather Update – March 12, 2022

Snowy and cold today. 🌨

I am thinking about going to skiing later, but when that wind pick up, I’m like it’s warm inside and cold and howling outside. β›· But I hate to miss my steps for the day. I don’t know how big of a snow storm this will turn out to be, but ultimately I’m not that worried that I don’t have a snow shovel. I should buy one, but money is tight, I’m broke, and I don’t need one unless I go camping or we actually get a big snow storm, and I’m sure as hell hoping that this is last big blast of winter.

Sunday is going to be kind of cold too, ❄️ but with the fresh snow it would be good to skiing. I probably wouldn’t bother to dig out my truck tomorrow, especially without a shovel, but I plan to go out and see the folks and do my laundry so I have clean clothes for work. πŸ‘”

Then the forecast looks much nicer for the work week. 😎 Why can’t we have nice weather for the work week? I hear the really long range is talking about rain for next weekend, which is good for the fire danger side of things, but I would rather have nicer weather for the weekend. But I guess with gas being so expensive, all that would mean is playing in the mud puddles at Five Rivers. 🐸 As who has the money these days to get out of town? Rent is do in a few week, as is auto insurance bill, even though I don’t drive much, they still want another big check from me. πŸ€‘

Daily Update – March 12, 2022

Good morning! Happy Saturday. It’s another cold and snowy weekend. ❄️

🌹🌻🌼Only 8 days remain until the first day of calendar spring!🌹🌻🌼

Snow and 32 degrees in Delmar, NY. ❄ Breezy, ️20 mph breeze from the northwest 🌬 with gusts up to 30 mph πŸ’¨πŸ’¨πŸ’¨. The current wind chill is 20. There is a dusting of snow on the ground. β˜ƒ Things will start to thaw out at tomorrow around 2 pm. 🌑️

This morning started out as rain and ice β›ˆ but now it’s turned to snow. I am not sure how much snow we are expected to get, but already the library is closed for the day. πŸ“š It’s fine, I have unlimited data on my phone, and I can find ways to keep myself busy and moving forward.

I think I will probably end up staying home 🏘 and maybe working on some maps and GIS projects. I should look and see if there are any camping or outdoors maps I need to update. But I don’t do many anymore, as I’ve done most of the ones for the state, and truth be told the DEC does much better maps now then years ago. πŸ• I also am kind of bored with that, looking at new projects and skills to learn. Maybe I’ll do so some work with the tax rolls. I have some ideas on PostgresSQL queries I can do for interesting maps to make up. And maybe something with daylight savings time.

At times I’m hopeful to get out skiing this afternoon, β›· but it depends a lot on the weather. At times the snow looks like quite delightful and other times the wind whips around like there is no tomorrow. Maybe I can just sit by the heater and be warm, watch Youtube videos. But I sure would like to get in my steps today, maybe with the skis. Or I could trudge through the snow πŸ‘£ and go for a walk.

Weather Update – March 10, 2022

The rainy weekend has turned into a rather snowy weekend. 🌨

At least for Saturday. But it’s March and the snow won’t last with things expected to reach into fifties by next week with a lot of sun β˜€. And with the sunset πŸŒ‡ later in the evening with the time change the days will certainly feel longer even if the mornings will be somewhat darker.

Daily Update – March 10, 2022

Good morning! Happy Thursday.

🌹🌻🌼Only 10 days remain until the first day of calendar spring!🌹🌻🌼

But first a snow 🌨 storm? Maybe though not a big one. We did get a few inches last night though.

Snow fog 🌫 and 26 degrees in Delmar, NY. Calm wind. There are 4 inches of snow on the ground. β˜ƒ ️Things will start to thaw out around 8 am. 🌑️

Day by day we are getting closer to spring. 🌸 But this morning certainly doesn’t feel particularly spring like. Quite foggy 🌁 to be exact. I think everybody was surprised by how much snow we got yesterday – a few inches. Then some point after my evening walk 🚢 it seems to have turned to ice and freezing rain. Although on top of the dusting of snow things aren’t that slick. Actually kind of pretty with all the snow on the trees.

With the snow last night πŸŒƒ I was able to attend the meeting last night via Zoom from home 🏑 and actually take it along for me on my evening walk. 🚢 That said, with the heavy wet snow last night on the trees halfway through my walk the signal πŸ“Ά kept dropping out a bit. Then I hurried home, brushed the snow off my hair and participated in the the question and answer section of the meeting when I actually had to have my video πŸ“Ή camera on. Mobile πŸ“± phones are great especially when you have unlimited within reason data.

I’ve been quite happy 😊 with my decision to go with peanut butter and jelly sandwiches πŸ₯ͺ this week. It does really help to save money and time both preparing, cooking and eating lunch. I should do more sandwiches. Hot lunches are fine but they get kind of tiresome with all the prep work and cleaning up there after. Sandwiches just require a quick cleaning of the containers when done.
