Have you noticed how much light there is in the mornings and afternoons? It’s nice. Spring is coming.
Night before dawn is 6 hours and 6 minutes, Dawn starts at 6:06 am and runs for 28 minutes, Sunrise is at 6:35 am which is 5 hours and 24 minutes before noon, High noon, the transit of the sun, is at 12:08 pm, From twelve noon to the sunset at 5:41 pm is 5 hours and 41 minutes, Dusk lasts for 31 minutes concluding at 6:09 pm, Leaving 5 hours and 50 minutes until midnight.
Looks like today will be fairly cold but warming up ๐
The sun angle is relatively strong this time of year, so I don’t think it will remain cold for most of the day. Plus not too windy. Even the night shouldn’t be too bad, maybe a bit cold but it’s no longer January. Sunday look like the nicer of the two days, especially if I get out relatively early. I would like to do some skiing on Sunday.

Good morning! Happy Saturday. The weekend after the snowstorm ๐งค
After all the hype about Friday’s snow storm, we got like half a foot of snow, and by afternoon the roads were just salty and wet. I worked from home, and truth be told I haven’t been outside since Thursday, but it’s already rapidly fading away. With temperature above freezing most of the coming week I don’t expect much of it to last.
Mostly sunny and 6 degrees in Delmar, NY. ๐ค Calm wind. There are 6 inches of snow on the ground. โ ๏ธThings will start to thaw out at tomorrow around 10 am. ๐ก๏ธ
Yesterday was the much hyped snow storm, ๐จ that was more like whatever. I worked from home, so I guess I can’t have that much of an opinion, staying safely inside from the weather. If that hadn’t closed the Albany offices, I probably would have gone in even if other people worked remotely. ๐จ๐ป I just don’t like using too much bandwidth with my hotspot which only provides 5 gigs a month, with the ordinary $45 plan that I have. ๐ฑ
In the end, I’ve learned how to disable images in Firefox and other ways to save bandwidth, ๐ and do a lot of things on my phone, so I didn’t use much data. ๐ง Plus the offices were officially closed, so it was a pretty quiet day at work outside of the ordinary Friday business. ๐ข But I like my office, especially now that I have that swanky private, corner office with the brass lamp. ๐ No sofa, but several comfortable chairs for those wanting to visit.
I do need to go outside and clean off my truck, ๐ป which I’ve been avoiding doing as my snow shovel is broken. Fortunately though we didn’t get too much snow. โ๏ธ I can probably brush it off my truck. ๐งน I should get a new shovel — the one I have now for 12 years is trash — it cracked and then the handle broke, but I hate buying new stuff. ๐I will need one though if we get more snow, or I decide to go camping. As much as I hate to say, I do need to go to the transfer station to get rid of a lot of accumulated crap ๐ — no way in hell am I going to burn a plastic snow shovel in woods. ๐ฅ ๐ Maybe if I had acreage and a big pile of brush to burn, I’d feel differently.
I need to finish up my GIS class map ๐บ and make one more as I am supposed to submit two different maps with different features. It’s kind of fun, I learn new skills every week even if a lot of things are very basic.
I also want to try to get that bulb in my truck tail light. ๐ก It was kind of cool I found the bulb I need in my drawer. It seems like it will work.
Then maybe I’ll go down to Five Rivers. ๐ฆ I don’t feel like driving so I won’t bring my skis, only hike out and there do some of the road hikes. I wonder how many birds I’ll see? They’lll probably be quite active after the cold and snow of yesterday. Sometimes I just like walking out to Five Rivers and watching nature. Then maybe Meads Lane to take in the scenic views and look at the cows. ๐ฎ
