Good morning! Happy Cold Sunday. ⛪ The radio wants you to know it’s cold, so it must be cold. Or so I was told. 📻 That said the swaying tree branches under the deep blue skies and occasional gusts of wind make it seem cold. ❄ Three weeks to Valentines Day ❤️ . Sunny and 11 degrees in Delmar, NY. 🌞 Breezy, ️16 mph breeze from the west-northwest 🌬 with gusts up to 28 mph 💨💨💨. The current wind chill is -5. Your car don’t care about the windchill, although I guess it does take more heat away from the engine making it less energy efficient. There is a inch of snow on the ground. ☃ ️

I did not go for any walks yesterday. 🚶I guess that’s a mistake that I do not regret. It was pretty cold out or so it looked out the window, although it seemed like by evening, the wind died down. Although I don’t know sometimes the wind was pretty quite but there was some massive gusts. Fortunately though, we didn’t loose power were I live at least. It would kind of suck in my dumpy apartment that normally is cold and only would be colder without heat.♨ It does work pretty good lately but I don’t keep it cranked up real high.

Today will be sunny 🌞, with a high of 23 degrees at 1pm. Eight degrees below normal. Northwest wind around 17 mph, with gusts as high as 31 mph. A year ago, we had cloudy skies in the morning with more sun in the afternoon. The high last year was 43 degrees. The record high of 54 was set in 1999. 7.6 inches of snow fell back in 1948.❄

Solar noon 🌞 is at 12:08 pm with sun having an altitude of 28.3° from the due south horizon (-42.6° vs. 6/21). A six foot person will cast a 11.2 foot shadow today compared to 2.2 feet on the first day of summer.
