Good evening! Cloudyand 32 degrees in Delmar for the evening walk. Calm wind. The sidewalks are a bit icy from the freezing rain earlier and Iโm sure the news media is declaring the slippery roads a dire emergency that deserves governmental action but Iโm like whatever, stay home or use caution. Iโm glad I ran to the store yesterday.
The truth is with my new boots โ which are finally broke in I have decent traction on the ice and the freezing rain is kind of mixed in Delmar so itโs not super icy yet. And itโs getting warmer. I seriously thought about skipping my evening walk but lately Iโve been on a roll with my steps and I didnโt want to have a down day. You know how those steps apps can get your butt moving.
It was a very typical psuedo Monday at the office . I ended up running late and catching the later local to work and then doing the walk of shame into my office though I donโt think any the other directors caught me coming in late. Iโm usually one of the first ones in as I take the express bus and then walk the Plaza before work so Iโm usually in well before nine. Busy left work at 6:15 pm and it was raining hard this evening. Iโm definitely noticing that the days are getting longer and are sunnier in the evening.
Tonight will have a chance of freezing rain and sleet before midnight, then a chance of rain and sleet. Mostly cloudy , with a low of 33 degrees at 8pm. 18 degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical night around April 5th. South wind 3 to 5 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. Little or no sleet accumulation expected. In 2022, we had cloudy skies in the evening, which became mostly clear by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 22 degrees. The record low of -19 occurred back in 1957.
Tonight will have a Waining Crescent Moon with 18% illuminated. The Snow Moon is on Thursday, February 2. The darkest hour is at 12:06 am, followed by dawn at 6:51 am, and sun starting to rise at 7:23 am in the east-southeast (118ยฐ) and last for 3 minutes and 18 seconds. Sunrise is 31 seconds earlier than yesterday. The golden hour ends at 8:06 am with sun in the southeast (126ยฐ). Not going to be a particularly nice morning though. Tonight will have 14 hours and 28 minutes of darkness, a decrease of one minute and 46 seconds over last night.
I was reading that January 22nd is the Lunar New Year that is the big Chinese celebration that the western press either will chew out saying itโs going to lead to bad air pollution in China or as a super spreader event for the COVID with everybody having some fun. As because everybody in the press is a Debbie Downer about fun when itโs not America . Honestly though Iโm excited about the year of the rabbit . I was reading the horoscopes for the year, the complete psuedo science they are, just for fun.
Tomorrow will have a chance of rain and snow showers before 8am, then a chance of rain showers. Mostly cloudy , with a high of 42 degrees at 11am. 10 degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical day around March 6th. Light west wind increasing to 10 to 15 mph in the morning. Chance of precipitation is 30%. Little or no snow accumulation expected. A year ago, we had light snow in the morning, remaining cloudy in the afternoon. The high last year was 34 degrees. The record high of 59 was set in 1973. 7.9 inches of snow fell back in 1891.
In four weeks on February 14 the sun will be setting in the west-southwest (253ยฐ) at 5:27 pm, which is 36 minutes and 4 seconds later then tonight. In 2021 on that day, we had mostly cloudy, snow showers and temperatures between 28 and 15 degrees. Typically, you have temperatures between 36 and 17 degrees. The record high of 63 degrees was set back in 1946.
