Good evening! Partly clear under starry skies and 69 degrees in Delmar, NY. There is a south breeze at 5 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 57 degrees. Sitting out back on the tailgate of my truck. The air has quite nice earthy smell I guess from all pollen. I like it at least.
I looked in the mirror this morning and was horrified how much gray hair has started to pop up.👴 I mean I’ve noticed patches of gray popping up in places for maybe a year but now gray has now is becoming wide spread on more and more hair. It’s all over on individual strands of hair. I know there are chemicals to make you hair any color you want but I’m not into that. But it just scares me that I’m getting old as shit now that I head towards the second half of my 35th year. But in the mean time let’s look at the weather.
Tonight will be mostly cloudy β, with a low of 61 degrees at 4am. 14 degrees above normal. Maximum dew point of 58 at 6am. South wind around 6 mph. In 2017, we had light rain in the evening with a few breaks in clouds by early morning. It got down to 50 degrees. The record low of 31 occurred back in 1977.
Tonight will have a New Moon. The Flower Moon 🌝 is in 2 weeks. The sun will rise at 5:33 am with the first light at 5:00 am, which is one minute and 2 seconds earlier than yesterday. 🌄 Tonight will have 9 hours and 21 minutes of darkness, a decrease of 2 minutes and 4 seconds over last night.

The high last year was 67 degrees. The record high of 93 was set in 1900.
Truck seemed to be absolutely fine today. I’m sure it was just my bug eyed self the rough pavement and I was tired after working all weekend and staring at a computer screen. π I’m probably not going camping this weekend so I’ll have time to test things out and maybe put it up on the jack and look more carefully.🚗 I could take it somewhere but I really have nothing to point to and I’ve not noticed anything further.
Got the additional groceries I needed. Tomorrow I do got to get out and vote. 📚 School budget votes, right around the corner from home so easy to do. 🏃Went out for my evening walk.
Not a particularly nice weekend on tap. π Saturday, a chance of showers and thunderstorms. Cloudy, with a high near 68. Chance of precipitation is 50%. Maximum dew point of 59 at 6pm. Sunday, a chance of showers and thunderstorms. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 76. Chance of precipitation is 40%. Maximum dew point of 61 at 1pm. Typical average high for the weekend is 70 degrees.
I don’t know if I will be able to get out of town this weekend with that forecast but I’ve still requested Thursday and Friday off as I need some time away from work🚀 and I want to try to get that solar panel on my truck cap. I haven’t been granted those days yet but I’m sure I’ll get them.
