Weather Update – October 19, 2021
Cool but sunny the next two days ☀
But that’s to be expected as the average high drops below sixty for the remainder of the year. Actually going to be a bit on the warm side but it still seems cool compared to recent weeks.
More clouds expected for the weekend and maybe showers. 🌦️I haven’t decided on weekend plans though I’m kind of inclined to take off Thursday and Friday unless of course meetings are scheduled for then. Of course if I wait until the following weekend then I could take off Monday and get a four day weekend as Election Day is a holiday at work.
I was looking at old photos of Glimmerglass from last autumn, thinking it sure might be pretty out there this weekend 🍂 assuming of course that it’s not too cloudy and rainy. That said I doubt it would be worthwhile to go all the way to Cazenovia this weekend. Leaves usually drop fairly early out that way due to the elevation.
It was so nice out last night 🌃 that I really want to spend some evenings up in the woods next to a fire 🔥 but I’m not sure if this is the weekend or not to do it. Next weekend could be a four day weekend for the cost of one vacation day with the Election Day holiday.

There's always that odd one out there, in a pond of geese.

Good Morning – October 19, 2021
Good morning! Happy Average High is 60 🍂 !
Not quite as dark this morning with clear skies but that’s mostly due to the time of year – late October. Cold start to the day.
Mostly sunny and 41 degrees in Delmar, NY. ☀ There is a west breeze at 5 mph. 🍃
It might be a cool start to the morning 🍂🍁 but it was a very pleasant walk 🚶 down to the express bus stop 🚏. Sun angle is much lower now in the morning. Even as the nine o’clock hour rolls around the Empire State Plaza is still heavily in shadow. I might be in denial but winter is coming. Today would have been a good vacation day.
I didn’t get to the store last night. 🥫🍳🥦. I checked my pantry and decided I had enough food 🍲 and was tired after a long day at work. 🚶 I did do my evening walk thought.
I am still chewing 🐮 over the weekend, the forecast doesn’t look great and gas is do expensive ⛽ but I also know it won’t be long before the snow 🌨 arrives in the high country and I won’t have as many options to travel. I do remember how great though the color was at Glimmerglass last year.
Been continuing to work with R and ggplot2, 🖥 most recently trying to plot electoral and demographic data. I want to do some comparisons between party enrollment over time but I’m still trying work out issues with the parsing the old BOE enrollment PDFs.
