June 7, 2016 Morning

Good morning! Happy Tuesday. Today is VCR day. Honestly, I like how my digital TV converter box automatically records the PBS Newshour each evening – but not on tape like the olden days.

Currently partly cloudy and 63 degrees in Delmar.There is a south-southwest breeze at 9 mph. The dew point is a somewhat sticky 61. A lot of moisture in the air from last night. Not a terrible day but still pretty humid. I wish the bus had more air conditioning.

Slight chance of showers then scattered t-storms today. We will have a slight chance of showers before 9am, then scattered showers and thunderstorms after 1pm. Some of the storms could produce small hail and gusty winds. Partly sunny, with a high near 79. Calm wind becoming west 5 to 9 mph in the morning. Chance of precipitation is 40%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms. The normal high for today is 76, so it will be about normal for this time of year. The record high of 95 happened back in 1999.

Tonight the sun will set at 8:31 pm with dusk around 9:06 pm, which is 38 seconds later than yesterday. Today will have 15 hours and 13 minutes of daylight, an increase of 52 seconds over yesterday.

Isolated showers but otherwise seasonable for tonight. We will be isolated showers before 2am. Partly cloudy, with a low around 53. West wind 8 to 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%. The normal low for tonight is 54, so it will be about normal for this time of year. The record low of 38 occured back in 1951.

On this day in 1965, the Supreme Court of the United States hands down its decision in Griswold v. Connecticut, effectively legalizing the use of contraception by married couples.

There are 1 weeks until Flag Day when the sun will be setting at 8:34 pm with dusk at 9:09 pm. The average high temperature is 78 degrees, with a record high of 96 in 1892.

We made it to Tuesday, so step by step we are getting closer to the weekend. Looking forward to exploring the Miami River this weekend and doing some fishing.
