Weather Update – February 15, 2022
One more cold day and night then things will moderate and rain ☔
I like these clear mornings for the walk but they could be a bit warmer to give the heater a break. And make it feel not so cold on my face. I guess spring is only a few weeks away. Second half of February. March comes and goes quickly as I’m usually busy with work.
I really would like to get out of town this weekend but I don’t know what will happen. It looks like a perfect forecast although lately it’s been tending downwards as often happens.

Good Morning – February 15, 2022
Good morning! Happy Tuesday. 🌄
Halfway through February. Day 2 of the early morning walk program. It’s cold but the sun is rising. Nice golden ball.
Sunny and 6 degrees in Delmar, NY. 🌞 Calm wind. There is a inch of snow on the ground. ☃ ️Things will start to thaw out at tomorrow around 10 am. 🌡️
Yesterday was a later night at work than I expected 🌃 and I ended up getting home at 8 pm, so I put some fish 🐠 sticks in the oven, had dinner and retired to bed 🛏. Last night just felt super cold ❄. Windy downtown with the tall buildings. 🏢
Later this week and next week 🚶 when there is no session then I’ll probably go back to taking the express bus 🚍 and walking the Plaza but it’s good that I’m getting at least some of my steps in. I actually rather like these crisp and clear mornings.
I used up the last of the cheese 🧀 making biscuits up for breakfast and I’m almost out of frozen fruit and that’s not dairy good so I may need to get to the store and get groceries after work on Wednesday. Tonight though I probably will have to work late again. 😴
Researchers Develop Poison Bait to Control Feral Pigs | Field & Stream
This is pretty cool science, building a safe pesticide for controlling feral pigs using sodium nitrates, the same thing used to cure bacon. Basically pigs are slightly more sensitive to sodium nitrate than humans, so they can be poisoned by it. But the sodium nitrates don't bioaccumulate. I do wonder though about the production of Nitroso compounds and if they could cause problems downstream.
