Good morning! Happy Regular Deer Season in Southern Zone 🦌! Hunt safely and get a good deer for those into that thing. Bitterly cold day to be in your stand but I’m sure the bright sun is good. I just know how cold the woods can be small game hunting. Two weeks to Small Business Saturday 🛍️. Sunny and 25 degrees at the Green Energy Fair at Saint Rose. 🌞 There is a north breeze at 9 mph. 🍃. Things will start to thaw out at tomorrow around 11 am. 🌡️

Today will be sunny 🌞, with a high of 32 degrees at 1pm. 16 degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical day around December 27th. North wind 7 to 9 mph. Another really cold day and possibly record breaking cold tonight. A year ago, we had mostly sunny skies in the morning, remaining cloudy in the afternoon. The high last year was 40 degrees. The record high of 71 was set in 2006. 3.4 inches of snow fell back in 2002.❄

So today I plan to table for the Green Energy Fair 🎄 and then depending on how cold it and long I stay at the fair is hike along the rail trail 🚶 and then maybe run to the store. 🏬I ended up driving here because I needed to bring a table for our booth which is annoying as I hate driving in the city but I avoided all the red light 🚦 camera intersections like I always try to do. Takes planning thought to do that in the city. It would have been pretty cold walk over to hear. ❄ The hall is a bit chilly as it’s not well insulated and some of the window are missing allowing heat to pour out ♨ of the Armory. But still a lot of displays and groups at the Green Energy ⚡ Fair today.

The sun will set at 4:31 pm with dusk around 5:02 pm, which is 54 seconds earlier than yesterday. 🌇 At sunset, look for clear skies 🌄 and temperatures around 30 degrees. There will be a north breeze at 7 mph. Today will have 9 hours and 44 minutes of daytime, an decrease of 2 minutes and 9 seconds over yesterday.

Tonight will be mostly clear 🌃, with a low of 10 degrees at 6am. 21 degrees below normal. Maximum wind chill around 16 at 6pm; North wind 3 to 6 mph. A pretty frigid night, even colder up north. Even hot tenting 🎪 that would be cold and In 2018, we had cloudy skies. It got down to 37 degrees. The record low of 7 occurred back in 1972.

Finished up the last of the pumpkin 🎃 butter my mom made up. That was super delicious 😋 to say the least. I should try making up some myself and maybe even baking my own pumpkin pie with pie filling on sale this time of year. I just really like the taste of pumpkin.

Shower continues to shut off properly 🚿 although I still have to play with the knob. Annoying how fast the washers have started to act up in it. Well if I have to have my landlord come over to fix it so be it, that’s the job I pay him to do. Maybe I’m not gentle enough on the faucet but he probably also shouldn’t have used the cheapest possible model to fix it two years ago.

As previously noted, there are 2 weeks until Small Business Saturday 🛍️ when the sun will be setting at 4:23 pm with dusk at 4:54 pm. On that day in 2018, we had mostly sunny, rain showers and temperatures between 45 and 18 degrees. Typically, the high temperature is 42 degrees. We hit a record high of 67 back in 1933.
