Good evening! Clear and 60 degrees in Delmar, NY. There is a northwest breeze at 7 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 48 degrees. Not a half bad evening for sitting out back but the migraine headache and achiness returned a bit. I was reading about somebody I’m Facebook friends with who was hospitalized after collapsing with after complications from Lyme disease. But who knows, it could also be mold exposure at home. But I did do my evening walk to burn off some calories from the work picnic.

Tonight will be clear 🌃, with a low of 50 degrees at 5am. Six degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical night around May 26th. West wind 3 to 7 mph. In 2018, we had mostly clear skies. It got down to 57 degrees. The record low of 38 occurred back in 1972.

Tonight will have a Waxing Gibbous Moon 🌔 with 80% illuminated. The moon will set at 2:38 am. The 🌕 is on Sunday night with partly cloudy skies. The sun will rise at 5:17 am with the first light at 4:42 am, which is 7 seconds earlier than yesterday. 🌄 Tonight will have 8 hours and 43 minutes of darkness, a decrease of 37 seconds over last night.

Tomorrow will be sunny 🌞, with a high of 77 degrees at 5pm. Typical for that day. Maximum dew point of 50 at 8am. Calm wind becoming south 5 to 7 mph in the afternoon. Should be a nice day if you’re not stuck in the office. I’ll try to walk outside to the capitol. A year ago, we had mostly sunny skies. The high last year was 82 degrees. The record high of 95 was set in 2017.

Nice weather expected for Saturday based on the latest forecast. Saturday, partly sunny, with a high near 78. ☀ Maximum dew point of 57 at 7pm. Sunday, a chance of showers and thunderstorms. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 78. ☁ Chance of precipitation is 50%. Maximum dew point of 65 at 5pm. Typical average high for the weekend is 78 degrees.

Unless something changes I doubt I’ll get out of town for the weekend. But I will hopefully have time for a few more projects around home. 🏡 Even if I’m not working Saturday I expect a late night on Friday so I’ll be too tired to get packed and head out of town. Once I finish my next wiring project on the truck I’ll doubt I’ll ever change things again. It will be interesting having the power meter on solar panel to see how much power is actually being produced.

I got the three USB cables I ordered a few weeks back from China. 🔌 They’re like $2.80 for 1.5 meter or roughly 5 foot high quality cables on AliExpress. Sure they took like 3 weeks to arrive but they’re better quality than Walmart for a fraction of the price. These will be left in my truck for powering various devices. I have similar ones I use inside that have proven to be very durable and long lasting. UGreen is a great brand on AliExpress and also very lightly packaged for minimal waste.

I was kind of hoping for the barometric pressure sensors to arrive but no luck on that front. They’ll get here eventually from China. I think they’ll be a lot of fun to program when I get them and wire them up to the VMS display in my bedroom. 📟 I really should make more time with the soldering iron.

I’m looking at the third week of July for my summer vacation this year. A week earlier than many years due to my dentist appointment. ⛺ I’ve thought about going to the Adirondacks and camping at different locations throughout the week but I really enjoy spending my summer vacation at the campsite on Chicken Coop Road in the Finger Lakes National Forest and visiting state parks throughout the week. Although maybe the Adirondacks would be nice for a change, especially poking around the Western Adirondacks which I haven’t done in several years. 🗻

In four weeks on July 9 the sun will be setting at 8:34 pm,🌄 which is one minute and 17 seconds later then tonight. In 2018 on that day, we had hot, sunny and temperatures between 92 and 61 degrees. Typically, you have temperatures between 82 and 61 degrees. The record high of 103 degrees was set back in 1936.

Looking ahead, Primary Day 🗳️ is in 2 weeks, Last Sunset After 8:30 PM 🌆 is in 5 weeks, September 11th 🇸 is in 3 months, Constitution Day 📜 is in 14 weeks, October 🛥 is in 16 weeks and Election Day 2020 🗳️ is in 73 weeks.

I expect a long day at work tomorrow so I should probably retire to bed. Good night. 😴
