Good evening. Currently 45 degrees and cloudy this evening. This evening will be fairly warm and cloudy, near constant temperatures. The wind appears to have died down a bit.

Stayed a bit late at work, catching the local bus home. According to the Bus Time the buses were running late but I didn’t notice the delay. It’s possible that the buses are just running 15 minutes late, essentially on time. I don’t know.

Tired tonight. I was up too late last night. Going to try to get a earlier start to bed tonight.

Good evening. Currently 33 degrees and partly cloudy as we get one day closer to Christmas. Tonight will be mostly cloudy, with a low around 28. Calm wind becoming south around 5 mph.

Bus driver made a wrong turn so we had to go around the block. But sometimes leaving later means less traffic. Tonight though traffic is slow. Oh, well I get home when I get home.

Good evening. Currently 41 degrees and clear. Tonight will be partly cloudy, with a low around 33. Northwest wind 7 to 11 mph, with gusts as high as 21 mph.

Traffic is moving slowly but surely on the old 787 heading out of the city. Creeping along. Eventually I’ll get home. It’s rush hour. I’m starting to think traffic has picked up a fair amount since the end of the recession.

Good evening. Currently 48 degrees at nearly 11 PM. The rain has stopped and  by all means a nice evening but no stars are to be seen. Scattered showers, mainly before 1am. Cloudy, with a low around 38. Light and variable wind becoming west 5 to 10 mph after midnight. Chance of precipitation is 40%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.

Not a bad evening for sure.

Good evening. The rain has stopped for a bit and it’s about 44 degrees. Later this evening, periods of rain continue, mainly before 10pm, then scattered showers after midnight. Low around 38. Light and variable wind becoming west 5 to 10 mph after midnight. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.

Tomorrow also looks to be rainy but nicer weather comes in for the weekend. Mid 40s and lots of sun can’t be beat for early December. It will be nice for getting away at least one more time truck camping. I might leave work early so I’m not driving in the pitch black on Friday.

That house fire on Park Avenue in Albany was pretty nasty as seen from the skyscraper I work in downtown. It reminded me of a winter campfire when you’re burning wet wood with flames struggling to peak out of wood and tons of smoke. At one point during the fire the smoke started to get sucked into the building’s ventilation system and it stunk like burning shingles in a bonfire.

Just passed a pickup truck with West Virginia plates. God I miss that state, even if I can’t exactly put my finger on why I love it besides the amazingly rugged scenery. November 2016 will be here before you know it.

All and all it was a good day at work even it was a day of change. I look forward to new challenges and moving forward. 2016 is just around the corner and I’m willing to embrace it fully, even though 2015 wasn’t a have bad year in the grand scheme of things. That sprained ankle in August was pretty horrific though.

I need to get more Egg Nog from the store and it sure is good mixed with liquor. Auld Lang Syne will soon be played a million more times. Then it’s 2016.

Good morning. It’s a rainy morning on this second of December. With the rain comes higher temperatures. Forty four this morning.

More rain today with a high near 46. It is expected to pick up morning. South wind 3 to 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New precipitation amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.

Kind of a dreary day but it’s the middle of the week and I have to work. We need the rain so it’s hard to complain. It looks like in the near future we will remain snow free. So be it.

In this rainy weather make sure to increase your distance between cars as your stopping distance will increase due to hydroplaning. There was a three car crash at the stop light near where I live. Motorists not maintaining a safe speed in the adverse conditions.

Getting closer to being back in the map making business. A number of the PostGIS have been restored but I’m still missing some data that I need to download and update into the system. At least when I’m back in business I’ll be totally up to date with the data.

Good afternoon. Currently 39 degrees and cloudy. Surprisingly for the most part we have missed the rain in Albany, despite the north country getting pelleted with freezing rain and a lot more rain falling in the Hudson Valley. Scattered showers before midnight, then periods of rain, mainly after midnight. Low near constant, around 38. South wind around 5 mph becoming calm in the evening. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New precipitation amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch possible.

Traffic is really backed up on Interstate 787 tonight. The drizzle isn’t helping. I’m sure traffic will get moving again soon and I will be home.

After a tough couple of days, I have some good news. I finally got the PostGIS server working on my laptop. I am in the process of restoring the various databases but it going well. I think I will be fully back in the map making business come the end of the week. I was super annoyed about had all my mapping software broke with the distribution update – but at least I’ll have updated mapping data.

The weekend forecast continues to look quite nice. Not totally sure where I will go but if I can get out of town all the weekend all the better.
