8-14 Day Outlook – Wednesday January 19
Maybe the 8-14 day outlook is a sign the Ground Hog will see his shadow? 🐻
Certainly it seems like the thermostat will be stuck on the coldest position for the next few weeks in the Albany-area. But it is January. Unusual that we get so much cold weather in Albany, especially with the climate warming so much these days.
Weather Update – January 19, 2022
Cold but sunny 🌞 after today
Maybe early March weather today but by evening the mercury will feel colder because of the wind. Then it just looks like a lot of cold but not much snow for the foreseeable future. Looks like another cold weekend, might be okay for a hike out to Five Rivers if I bundle up but probably not much more.

Voters shift to preferring Republicans over Democrats : NPR
A new Gallup analysis examined how Americans' partisan preferences shifted over the course of the year 2021, with findings that indicate momentum for Republicans heading into this midterm election year.
Gallup found that Americans' partisan preferences were relatively stable when looking at the entire year 2021. But when the year was broken down into quarters, there was a discernible shift. In the first quarter of 2021, Democrats had a 9-point advantage over Republicans, but by the final quarter of the year that had shifted sharply to a 5-point Republican advantage, according to Gallup's aggregate data.
