Good evening! Snow showers and 31 degrees in Delmar, NY. ❄ There is a northwest breeze at 14 mph. 🍃. Things will start to thaw out at tomorrow around 9 am.💥

Heading back from my parents house, the roads were a bit slippery with snow coming down pretty hard at spots. ❄Not deep snow like on Friday but still with the wind it made driving a bit risky. For a while I took it slow, as I didn’t want to risk hitting black ice or sliding on the glaze of snow that had fallen. It’s better to take longer at your trip than slide off the road. 🚗

Tonight will have a slight chance of snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a low of 26 degrees at 5am. ☁Four degrees above normal. Maximum wind chill around 19 at 12am; Northwest wind 11 to 14 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%. In 2017, we had clear skies. It got down to 5 degrees. The record low of -12 occurred back in 1948.

Tonight will have a Waning Gibbous Moon 🌜 with 88% illuminated.The moon will set tomorrow at 8:36 am. The Last Quarter Moon is on Thursday night with snow is likely. The Blue Moon 🌝 is on Friday, March 30th. The sun will rise at 6:24 am with the first light at 5:56 am, which is one minute and 40 seconds earlier than yesterday. 🌄 Tonight will have 12 hours and 33 minutes of darkness, a decrease of 2 minutes and 53 seconds over last night.

Next weekend at this time, it will only be a little after nine as Daylight Savings Time gets underway. ⌛I like having that extra hour of light in the evening after I come home from work, otherwise even in June it would get dark at 7:30-8 o’clock rather than 8:30-9.🌐⌚ I guess if you live in the western part of a time zone you might feel differently. 🙄

Tomorrow will have a slight chance of snow showers before 9am. Mostly cloudy, with a high of 39 degrees at 2pm. ☁One degrees below normal. North wind around 13 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%. A year ago, we had partly cloudy skies. The high last year was 30 degrees. The record high of 71 was set in 1964. 8.6 inches of snow fell back in 1917.❄

Next weekend looks like it might be perfect weather-wise. 😎 Next Saturday, partly sunny, with a high near 38. Next Sunday, partly sunny, with a high near 42. Typical average high for the weekend is 42 degrees. It looks like there might actually be quite a bit of snow for skiing🎿 especially in the Heldebergs as we might get hit with another round of snow Wednesday into Thursday. ⛄

This weekend I was mostly busy with family stuff, and I must admit that it was pretty cold on Sunday so I stayed home. ❄Finished up some essays I’ve been working on, some Arduino code and also kind of took it easy as I feel a bit congested, sore and tired. I thought about driving out to Partridge Run to see how much snow they got in Berne, but with the wind whipping around and it being so cold I decided against that. Got to save miles and gas money for the nice weather of summer. 🚤🌌
