Good evening! It’s Friday and the work-week has come to an end. Currently a blustery 47 degrees with the wind whipping around here in Albany and the rain has held off. Darn cold. Winds are whipping around at 20 miles per hour. But folks in the Tug Hill Plateau region are getting pounded with rain, and some snow flurries. Parts of the Southern Tier are also getting some snow showers. No significant accumulations are expected, and any snow is expected to melt tomorrow.

Tomorrow’s weather is around 53 degrees but it will feel much cooler with clouds and the winds whipping around with sustained winds in the upper teens and gusts over 30 miles per hour. The windchill will make it feel about 29 degrees. You’ll want to hold onto your hat. A warming trend is expected for next week, but not as sunny and warm as predicted earlier on.

I’m pretty seriously bummed out about this weekend’s weather. If not for the cloudy skies and frigid windchill I would have wanted to be in the Adirondacks doing some camping, hiking, and hunting. Maybe Sunday. We will see. Maybe we will have a few more snow free weeks. Only God knows.
