Good morning! Monday’s come back around again in Biden’s America. 💵 I heard the future markets are on a tear this morning. All that stimulus money has to somewhere if it’s not going to cause inflation. Three weeks to Cyber Monday 🛍️. Foggy and 44 degrees in Delmar, NY. 🌫 Calm wind.
Back home and mostly unpacked. 🏡 I thought about staying another day in Madison County 🐮but work days are inevitably long and dark when I’m not working. The flat solar panel doesn’t put out that much energy with the low sun angle.
Today will be sunny 🌞, with a high of 71 degrees at 2pm. 20 degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical day around September 20th. Maximum dew point of 50 at 3pm. Light and variable wind. A year ago, we had cloudy skies in the morning with more sun in the afternoon. The high last year was 39 degrees. The record high of 71 was set in 1975. 10 inches of snow fell back in 1900.❄
Solar noon 🌞 is at 11:40 am with sun having an altitude of 30.4° from the due south horizon (-40.5° vs. 6/21). A six foot person will cast a 10.2 foot shadow today compared to 2.2 feet on the first day of summer. The golden hour 🏅 starts at 3:58 pm with the sun in the west-southwest (240°). 📸 The sunset is in the west-southwest (247°) with the sun dropping below the horizon at 4:40 pm after setting for 3 minutes and 8 seconds with dusk around 5:08 pm, which is one minute and 5 seconds earlier than yesterday. 🌇 The best time to look at the stars is after 5:43 pm. At sunset, look for clear skies 🌄 and temperatures around 68 degrees. The dew point will be 50 degrees. There will be a calm wind. Today will have 9 hours and 58 minutes of daytime, a decrease of 2 minutes and 21 seconds over yesterday.
Tonight will be mostly clear 🌃, with a low of 41 degrees at 6am. Eight degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical night around October 12th. Light south wind. In 2019, we had clear skies in the evening, which became mostly clear by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 33 degrees. The record low of 16 occurred back in 1965.
A more normal weekend on tap. Saturday, mostly sunny, with a high near 49. 🌅 Sunday, scattered rain and snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 48. Chance of precipitation is 50%. Typical average high for the weekend is 49 degrees.
I am thinking this will be a stay home 🏡 weekend maybe go out to Five Rivers 🐦 🐸 for some wildlife observation but with the time change, I can’t go particularly late or it will be dangerous walking home.
As previously noted, there are 3 weeks until Cyber Monday 🛍️ and Beaver Moon 🌕 when the sun will be setting at 4:23 pm with dusk at 4:54 pm. On that day in 2019, we had mostly sunny and temperatures between 33 and 19 degrees. Typically, the high temperature is 42 degrees. We hit a record high of 67 back in 1933.
