Good evening! Currently cloudy and 56 degrees with a calm wind. A bit of a cool down from earlier when it reached 62, but still a mighty nice evening for early March. We are looking at 52 degrees at 10 PM. Not a good night for stars with the clouds but not a bad evening for sitting out and having a cold one.

Tonight will be mostly cloudy, with a low around 47. Calm wind becoming south 5 to 7 mph in the evening. That’s about 24 degrees above normal. Pretty warm. Especially compared to the record low of -14 degrees was set back in 1943.

Tonight will have 12 hours and 20 minutes of darkness, a decrease of 2 minutes and 54 seconds over last night. The nights are growing steadily shorter.

Tonight we will have a Waning Crescent Moon with 1% illuminated. It will rise at 6:07 am. Basically a new moon for all intents and purposes. Officially though the New Moon is tomorrow. Clouds will block out the stars on both nights.

Tomorrow will be partly sunny, with a high near 69. in other words exceptionally nice but with a spring time fire risk. Southwest wind 6 to 9 mph. At least it’s not too dry. That means we will be about 28 degrees above normal and will likely smash the record high of 68 degrees was set back in 2000.

Looking ahead to a pretty nice weekend, Saturday will be mostly sunny, with a high near 59. Saturday night will be mostly cloudy, with a low around 42. Sunday will be mostly cloudy, with a high near 59. Sunday ain’t perfect but heck that’s the day to head back to the city.

That weekend forecast looks quite nice. I’m thinking of going out to Schoharie County to get out camping if it works with my work schedule. We will see. The forecast could change but truck cap camping would be fun.

It was a long day at work but a lot got done. I actually was glad the bus was running late as I needed to finish up some stuff and didn’t want to have to wait for the 7:30 bus to go home.

One thing I’ve noticed is that the bus time has gotten more accurate in recent weeks as they’ve worked out the kinks. It really is helpful to know when the next bus I’d coming so you can plan accordingly.

I hope your Tuesday is going well. Have a great evening!
