Good morning! Happy June 🍹and Happy Monday ! Dairy month and Pride Month. I’ll have to hang up my rainbow 🌈 flag when I camp. Three weeks to Average High is 80 🏖. Mostly sunny and 46 degrees in Delmar. Calm wind. A pretty nice morning.

Today will be mostly sunny 🌞, with a high of 67 degrees at 4pm. Seven degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical day around May 9th. Light and variable wind becoming northwest 6 to 11 mph in the morning. Winds could gust as high as 21 mph. A year ago, we had mostly sunny skies. The high last year was 81 degrees. The record high of 94 was set in 1918.

Definitely going to be a nice day for working outside. 😎 After my morning walk 🚶 I’ll clock in 🕒 and take the laptop out back and enjoy the nice sun. ☀ Midday I’ll go down to the library to work and then maybe after lunch, 🍔 out to Five Rivers to work and then walk and bird 🐦 watch after five.

Solar noon 🌞 is at 12:54 pm with sun having an altitude of 69.5° from the due south horizon (-1.3° vs. 6/21). A six foot person will cast a 2.2 foot shadow today compared to 2.2 feet on the first day of summer. The golden hour 🏅 starts at 7:45 pm with the sun in the west-northwest (295°). 📸 The sunset is in the west-northwest (302°) with the sun dropping below the horizon at 8:27 pm after setting for 3 minutes and 24 seconds with dusk around 9:00 pm, which is 47 seconds later than yesterday. 🌇 At dusk you’ll see the Waxing Gibbous 🌔 Moon in the south-southeast (166°) at an altitude of 42° from the horizon, 226,405 miles away. 🚀 The best time to look at the stars is after 9:45 pm. At sunset, look for partly cloudy skies 🌃 and temperatures around 62 degrees. There will be a northwest breeze at 7 mph. Today will have 15 hours and 6 minutes of daytime, an increase of one minute and 15 seconds over yesterday.

Tonight will be mostly cloudy 🌥, with a low of 49 degrees at 4am. Four degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical night around May 23rd. Northwest wind 5 to 7 mph becoming light and variable after midnight. In 2019, we had mostly clear skies in the evening, which became partly cloudy by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 49 degrees. The record low of 39 occurred back in 1971.

Right now, a split verdict on the weekend. 😕 Saturday, a chance of showers. Mostly sunny, with a high near 82. Chance of precipitation is 30%. Maximum dew point of 57 at 9am. Sunday, mostly sunny, with a high near 74. Maximum dew point of 47 at 6am. Typical average high for the weekend is 75 degrees.

I am probably going to go up to Speculator at 5 AM on Thursday morning, ☕ work from there Thursday and Friday, get some beach time and fishing 🎣 in over the weekend. That gives me three nights camping ⛺ in that site with the good cellphone reception for work on Thursday and Friday. Not sure if I’ll bring my kayak, it might be good for fishing but it’s a pain to load and unload. I still want to get to Schoharie but depending on how Coronavirus goes maybe in a few weeks the Mine Kill pool will open 🏊 or maybe thats too optimistic based on the beliefs of the politicians.

As previously noted, there are 3 weeks until Average High is 80 🏖 when the sun will be setting at 8:36 pm with dusk at 9:11 pm. On that day in 2019, we had mostly sunny and temperatures between 80 and 55 degrees. Typically, the high temperature is 80 degrees. We hit a record high of 95 back in 1954.
