May 12, 2020 Night
Good evening! Partly cloudy and 42 degrees in Delmar, NY. β There is a west-northwest breeze at 11 mph. π with gusts up to 21 mph π¨π¨π¨. The skies will clear around 10 pm.
Kind of a chilly evening π when I went for my evening walk πΆ but I’m not complaining, the muggers will be here before you know it. You will be dripping in sweat π° and while it will get nicer after dark it still will mean sticky conditions for sleeping. I’m hoping though come a few weeks my old office π’ will be open and things will be cool and air conditioned once again.
I ordered the screen house tent πͺ for camping. I’m not going to use it a lot because it’s a fair amount of work to take down and set back up but for long holiday weekends and summer vacations I plan to use it to escape the bugs and rain. I also ordered a propane lantern tree so I can use that when I don’t have a good place to hang the lantern like in the screen house. Took advantage of both the money π΅ I got for my birthday π from my parents and the gift card π¦ I got from CDTA for participating in their online fact finding group.
A pretty quiet day at work, πΌ I ended up spending most of the day down at the library parking lot as it was quiet there and nice sunny weather for using the Wi-Fi. β At one point there was five cars there with people getting on the web. Become popular. Honestly, I could get Wi-Fi at home but I like working down at the library or Five Rivers using my personal laptop and the charger running off the solar.
Another cold night on tap. Tonight will have areas of frost after 1am. Otherwise, partly cloudy π₯, with a low of 33 degrees at 4am. 13 degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical night around April 5th. West wind 6 to 11 mph, with gusts as high as 21 mph. In 2019, we had light rain in the evening, which became mostly clear by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 42 degrees. The record low of 30 occurred back in 2005.
