Weather Update – August 10, 2021

Just another Hot and Sultry Summer Day… πŸ–

Only going to get hotter as the week progresses. Working in the office downtown 🏒 today and tomorrow to be the heat and to exchange days with the director who is coming in later in the week to supervise while I’m up in the Adirondacks. Won’t be long before all work is in person.

I am chewing over whether I leave Wednesday or Thursday for the Adirondacks. 🌲 I sort of thought about a Central New York trip but I think I want to spend my days by the swimming hole. I am leaning against leaving Wednesday as I want to have sufficient ice for the weekend without having to run to Doldgeville. Plus then I have to move to a different campsite β›Ί to comply with the three night limit.

Wednesday is another hearing about more development in the Pine Bush, πŸ‘·‍♀️ but at this point I’m not that interesting attending, as I think I have spent too much time on Pine Bush things lately and it’s mostly a lot of headaches and time spent driving out to Guilderland. I am less and less interested in doing anything political these days, and spending more of my time in the woods.

Good Morning – August 10, 2021

Good morning! Happy Tuesday. πŸŒ₯

Going to be a hot one. Or so I’m told with the heat advisories. Drink lots of water. πŸ’¦

Partly cloudy and 68 degrees in Delmar, NY. πŸŒ₯ There is a south-southeast breeze at 10 mph. πŸƒ. The dew point is 67 degrees. The muggy weather ends Sunday around noontime. πŸ˜“

There is a pretty good breeze this morning πŸƒwhich makes for decent weather for the morning walk. The mountains to the west are shrouded with haze and it looks rather like I am about to get wet but the radar seems to disagree. β›ˆ

Feeling better this morning ☺ as I replaced that old contact that was causing eye strain all of yesterday. πŸ‘€ And cooled off by the early hours of the morning. Drank a lot of water πŸ’¦ as I think I was dehydrated and it was super hot in my bedroom last night. I do need to get the Emperors Vision and pick up my contacts. πŸ€“

I am working downtown today 🏒 because I figure it will be a lot cooler and I won’t be running down to the library when I need to edit or research something I can’t do on my phone. That said, next week when I replace my smashed phone πŸ“± I’ll have hot spot after they add the service to the standard 25 gb plan I’ve had for years now.

It’s back to wearing the muzzle in the office. 😷 At least when I’m away from the desk. It’s probably not a bad idea, the Delta πŸ”½ COVID is really bad locally at least in the sense of the number of positive tests although there haven’t been a lot of deaths locally ⚰. What can you say, vaccination πŸ’‰ works. Even though it really kind of ducks. πŸ¦† Honestly, I don’t blame the people who aren’t vaccinated for spreading Delta, I think it was inevitable. If people want to make foolish choices and die then let them do it. Despite what all the miserable old people πŸ‘΄πŸΌ are saying, it doesn’t really effect them if they are vaccinated.
