Good evening! Mostly cloudy and 37 degrees in Delmar, NY. ☁ Calm wind. Temperatures will drop below freezing at tomorrow around 5 am. ☃️

It was a nice mild evening for my evening walk 🚶. I also road the exercise bike 🚲 for nearly an hour after dinner. 🍲 Read 📖 for about an hour. Now I’m getting ready for lights out as it’s nearly ten 🔟 o’clock.

Dinner was macaroni and cheese with frozen sweet corn 🌽 and diced tomatoes 🍅. Those canned diced tomatoes add a lot of kick to macaroni and cheese, top it all off with some grated cheese up top. 🐮 Plus serve it with a good glass of milk and its dairyific! Gotta love them cows. Not a lot of waste in packaging and an inexpensive meal.

Tonight will be mostly cloudy 🌥, with a low of 31 degrees at 6am. 17 degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical night around March 29th. Light southwest wind. In 2019, we had mostly clear skies in the evening, which became mostly clear by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 8 degrees. The record low of -24 occurred back in 1957.

Tonight will have a Waining Gibbous 🌒 Moon with 86% illuminated. The darkest hour is at 12:05 am, followed by dawn at 6:53 am, and sun starting to rise at 7:24 am in the east-southeast (119°) and last for 3 minutes and 19 seconds. Sunrise is 22 seconds earlier than yesterday. 🌄 The golden hour ends at 8:09 am with sun in the southeast (127°) at an altitude of 6°. Tonight will have 14 hours and 38 minutes of darkness, a decrease of one minute and 32 seconds over last night.

Tomorrow will have a chance of showers, mainly after 3pm. Partly sunny 🌞, with a high of 39 degrees at 2pm. Nine degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical day around March 1st. Light and variable wind becoming south 5 to 8 mph in the afternoon. Chance of precipitation is 30%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible. A year ago, we had mostly sunny skies in the morning with some clearing in the afternoon. The high last year was 28 degrees. The record high of 66 was set in 1932. 9 inches of snow fell back in 1999.❄

In four weeks on February 10 the sun will be setting in the west-southwest (251°) at 5:20 pm,🌄 which is 35 minutes and 37 seconds later then tonight. In 2019 on that day, we had mostly cloudy, snow showers and temperatures between 33 and 17 degrees. Typically, you have temperatures between 33 and 16 degrees. By then things will be warming up a bit, well in theory. The record high of 53 degrees was set back in 1955. Who knows, this year we could best that but it seems like soon we will be in a cold spell. But the warm weather so far this season has made up for higher heating bills later in the year I guess.

Looking more and more like a big snowstorm ❄ next weekend but we will wait and see. No guarantees but I still see a cooling trend by next weekend. I really doubt my trip to Brookfield will be an reality but I could camp after the snow storm somewhere locally. Or just stay home.
