Good evening! Mostly clear and 58 degrees in Delmar. πThere is a west-northwest breeze at 14 mph. π with gusts up to 24 mph π¨π¨π¨. The dew point is 46 degrees. It’s a pleasant evening but somewhat of a breeze.
Bought some groceries and supplies, went for my walk πΆ then sat out back with the laptop for a while working on some school πΈ budget maps. I did forget to buy a big bottle of dandruff shampoo, the last one I bought lasted nearly a year. It’s a very big bottle and quite affordable to boot. Less plastic waste. β»
Tonight will be mostly clear π, with a low of 48 degrees at 5am. Typical for tonight. Northwest wind 8 to 14 mph, with gusts as high as 24 mph. In 2018, we had mostly clear skies. It got down to 51 degrees. The record low of 29 occurred back in 1981. Wouldn’t have been a bad night for camping had I not had the Lupine Festival. βΊ Maybe we will have weather this nice next week.
Tonight will have a π with 99% illuminated. The moon will set at 5:38 am. The π will be tonight with a chance of showers.

Going to be a nice day tomorrow for the Lupine Festival. I better bring some sunscreen π as it will be bright and sunny. I got the handouts at the copy store π¬ and I’m ready to go for tomorrow.
Looking ahead to Sunday, a slight chance of showers, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after 2pm. Partly sunny,β with a high near 80. South wind 8 to 16 mph, with gusts as high as 26 mph.

Warm but possibly quite nice on Sunday. I’ll have to see what it’s like before making any decisions. I hear it could be the first real humid day of the year although nothing like mid summer. π
