March 12, 2016 Afternoon
Good afternoon! Currently mostly sunny and 57 degrees with a 14 mph south-southeast wind up top of Vromans Nose.
Really pretty darn nice weather for mid-March. I’ve already set my phone and car clocks ahead, so it reads a little after 1:30 pm. Earlier this morning, I went to a Franklinton Vlaie and hiked down to the lake. They’ve really have fixed up that area with a boat dock and nice benches. Later today, I will probably go over to Mine Kill State Park then back to camp.
This afternoon will be sunny, with a high near 62. West wind 9 to 13 mph. That’s about 19 degrees above normal. The record high of 69 degrees was set back in 2012.
Tonight the sun will set at 6:01 pm with darkness around 6:29 pm, which is 1 minutes and 11 seconds later than yesterday. In four weeks on April 9 the sun will be setting at 7:33 pm (Daylight Savings Time), which is 1 hour and 32 minutes later then today.
Tonight we have a Waxing Cresent Moon with 26% illuminated. It will set at 9:11 pm. The First Quarter Moon is next Saturday and the March’s Full Worm Moon is on March 22nd.
Tonight will be mostly clear, with a low around 37. West wind around 9 mph. That’s about 13 degrees above normal. Going to a nice evening up in the woods. The record low of -6 degrees was set back in 1885.
Don’t forget to spring your clocks forward.
I hope your Saturday is going well. Have a great evening!
