Delmar is a hamlet in the Town of Bethlehem, in Albany County, New York, United States. It is a suburb of the neighboring city of Albany. The community is bisected by NY Route 443 (Delaware Avenue), a major thoroughfare, main street, and route to Albany.
A census-designated place (CDP) has been established since 1980 by the U.S. Census Bureau for tabulating the population of what the census has defined as the boundaries of the urbanized area in and around Delmar. The population was 8,292 at the 2000 census, but it was not included as a CDP in the 2010 census.
In 2005, CNN/Money Magazine named the Delmar ZIP Code (an area larger than the Delmar hamlet or CDP) as one of the “Best Places to Live” in America, rating it the 22nd best place to live among what it called “Great American Towns.
Trick or treat! Currently 49 degrees and mostly cloudy. Nice evening for a stroll or some trick and treating. The sun has set and when you wake up tomorrow, remember to sleep in an extra hour tomorrow as we set the clocks back an hour tonight.
At 9 PM it will be 43 degrees and cloudy. Probably a bit cold to be sitting out unless you have a roaring fire going. Have a great Halloween.
Good morning. Happy Saturday. It is 30 degrees this morning and clear. A bit chilly this morning but that’s to be expected on the last day of October. Sunrise this morning will be at 7:27 AM and we are looking at sunny weather and 54 degrees and sunny conditions today.
The long range forecast shows a warming trend throughout next Saturday, November 8th with nice weather. Rain comes in for the 9th. Wednesday will be sunny and 70 in Albany. Not bad for November.
Good evening. Currently 43 degrees and clear with a breeze this evening. So far this evening the moon hasn’t risen but it’s expected to rise shortly. Tomorrow will be sunny and about 53 and warmer for next week. Wednesday may hit seventy! Mostly warm and sunny all next week.
So my bags are packed and I’m mostly ready to head down to NY City for the weekend. My second time there. No, I don’t like going there, but I like getting paid so I can buy beer, ammo, and gasoline. Stocked up on snacks so I can avoid eating out as much as possible when down there. It will be a not fun weekend but next weekend I’ll be in the Adirondacks and it will just be a memory.
Still waiting for Cabela’s to ship the refurbished Mr. Heater Big Buddy propane heater and accessories I ordered from them. I have asked FedEx to hold the package for pick-up in case it arrives when I’m traveling for work. On chilly mornings during hunting season, I look forward to having up to 18,000 BTUs of heat blasted in my face without struggling to get a fire started. It will make camping during hunting season a lot more fun.
Long day tomorrow, 5 AM comes early. But it’s all just part of the game. Money buys toys and road trips, it keeps me moving on. It gives me the ability to do and see so many things that few are fortunate to experience. I guess they call it the good life.
Now that the sun has come up,it’s going to be a nice weekend, although I will be in NY City again for work. Currently 50 degrees with a breeze – only looking for a high around 54 today.
The following weekend I will be either doing my North Country trip or possibly a local trip plus packing for the North Country. It all depends on the weather as I don’t want to camp in November either in the rain or snow.
Assuming that we are snow free in late November I’m increasingly thinking about going up to the Green National Forest but I guess such weather becomes increasingly unlikely. Otherwise there is always Route 8 in the Adirondacks.
Fall colors are starting to fade in the city and certainly are mostly gone from the mountains. Sunday is November and Daylight Savings Time concludes. It sure will be nice to have additional sunlight in the morning and not be totally getting up in the pitch black. I always have trouble getting going this time of year.
Good morning. Happy Thursday. Not a half bad morning with temperatures around 59 degrees. Around noontime we may reach 67 degrees but then temperatures will drop. Already clearing out with the fog burning off and blue skies above. Brief heavy to severe are possibility throughout the day but generally I expect a decent day today.
The weekend looks to be either cloudy or partly cloudy depending on the model you look at. This weekend I have no real plans, a lot depends on my work schedule. Next week if it’s not a washout I will try to do something fun.
