Good morning! Happy Halloween πŸŽƒ! Four weeks to Thanksgiving πŸ¦ƒ. Clouds and 60 degrees at the Elm Ave Park & Ride – CDTA. ☁ There is a south breeze at 15 mph. πŸƒ. The dew point is 58 degrees. Temperatures will drop below freezing at Monday around 2 am. β˜ƒοΈ

No rain yet but definitely cloudy and damp. ☁ Rained for a while last night but then it stopped. Going to pick up later on with some good rain – I wore my rain coat into work today. I put a fresh contact in one of my eyes πŸ‘€ still a bit itchy. Not too sick, but a little congested this morning. Not terrible though. Big road check point at Elm Avenue Park and Ride, they seem to do a lot of commercial inspections there as it’s kind of hard for truckers to get around it with the low bridge on Delaware Avenue.πŸš›

Speaking of Inspections, tomorrow is November πŸ” and Big Red will need his state inspection. As the tires are wearing down, and should have legal and then some on it, I think I want to get it done relatively early. I’ll probably just drop it off at the Dealer next week or the week after and pick up after work. With my new job though, it will be an early start, as I have to get into work earlier then in the past. It’s just one of those things you have to get done — fewer and fewer states have safety inspections, but New York is one of the few ones left.

Today will rain. 🌧 High of 68 degrees at 2pm. 16 degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical day around September 22nd. I’ll take mid September weather come almost November. But with the wind and rain outside it will feel much colder. Maximum dew point of 63 at 4pm. πŸ–οΈ South wind 15 to 17 mph, with gusts as high as 29 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New precipitation amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch possible. A year ago, we had cloudy skies in the morning, which became cloudy by afternoon. The high last year was 61 degrees. The record high of 73 was set in 1946. 0.1 inches of snow fell back in 1913.❄

Tonight being Halloween and things so rainy and cold, πŸŽƒ I plan to head home after work, then ride the exercise bike 🚲 assuming my neighbor is not home, and work on electronics projects.⚑ I really haven’t used my soldering iron in some time. Then probably retire to bed quiet early, πŸ› as with my new job I find myself getting up earlier and taking the express bus to work. Despite it not being that much earlier, I’ve been trying to make sure each night I am well rested, so I don’t get sick again.

The sun will set at 5:50 pm with dusk around 6:19 pm, which is one minute and 20 seconds earlier than yesterday. πŸŒ‡ At sunset, look for rain 🌧 and temperatures around 68 degrees. The dew point will be 63 degrees. Breezy, 21 mph breeze β›… from the south with gusts up to 33mph. Today will have 10 hours and 22 minutes of daytime, an increase of 2 minutes and 34 seconds over yesterday.

Tonight will rain, mainly before 4am. The rain could be heavy at times. 🌧 Low of 53 degrees at 6am. 16 degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical night around September 18th. Maximum dew point of 63 at 6pm. πŸ–οΈ Breezy, with a south wind 16 to 21 mph becoming west after midnight. Winds could gust as high as 33 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New precipitation amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible. In 2018, we had cloudy skies in the evening, which became light rain by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 48 degrees. The record low of 22 occurred back in 1964.

A picture perfect weekend on tap. 😎 Saturday, sunny, with a high near 50. Calm wind becoming south 5 to 8 mph in the afternoon. Sunday, mostly sunny, with a high near 48. Typical average high for the weekend is 53 degrees. Still think I’m going to head out camping this weekend after I fix that light bulb. The White Rocks option is most likely, but i could change my mind.πŸ•

Looking ahead, there are 4 weeks until Thanksgiving πŸ¦ƒ when the sun will be setting at 4:24 pm with dusk at 4:55 pm (Standard Time). On that day in 2018, we had partly cloudy and temperatures between 45 and 18 degrees. Typically, the high temperature is 43 degrees. We hit a record high of 68 back in 1990.

No Fire Tower left but nice walk
