Good evening. Currently mostly cloudy and 19 degrees in Delmar. Tonight will have a chance of snow showers, mainly between 11pm and 2am. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 9. Wind chill values as low as zero. South wind 7 to 9 mph becoming west after midnight. Chance of precipitation is 30%. Total nighttime snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible.

Waxing crescent moon set about an hour ago, but when it was nice, it was quite pretty. Tomorrow’s sunrise will be at 6:54 am with first light at 6:25 am, which is 2 minutes and 21 seconds earlier then today. Tomorrow will have a slight chance of snow showers between 11am and noon. Mostly sunny and cold, with a temperature falling to around 3 by 5pm. Wind chill values as low as -18. Blustery, with a northwest wind 16 to 22 mph, with gusts as high as 34 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%. Hopefully Big Red will start right up tomorrow.

This evening however was still fairly mild with a slack wind, so I could do my evening walk. It was nice to be able to walk as with the cold through Monday, evening walks and most all walks are off the table. The mostly cloudy skies of earlier have turned to stars and a nice moon which has now set. Walking can take away a lot of stress.

I was doing quite well this evening until the bathroom sink plugged. I’m delighted about the tax refund I’m getting and that tax season this year was relatively easy. The sink however has been draining slowly for a while, and now it’s draining real slowly. I tried plunging it but with plunger with limited results. The overflow valve makes using the plunger challenging. It’s just a lot of hair from shaving and soap. I got a lot out. Hopefully it will be fixable with some lye or draino. I am hopeful I can fix it myself, as I don’t want to deal with my landlord much less get billed a bunch for a plumber. Lately, I’ve been just so stressed with my budget. Everything expensive lately has been happening with me to break my bank. But I’ll survive at some point not running from crisis to crisis. Life could be a lot worse.

I hope you had a good week and are ready to rest up during the frigid long weekend weekend. Sleep well!
