Weather Update – March 8, 2022

Talk about a blustery morning today. 🌬️

The wind is really roaring about. It’s not super cold but look, snow 🌨 is expected for tomorrow. But not a lot. Then heavy rain for Saturday. Not that I can afford to go very far from home, thanks to the mismanagement of everything in Washington DC. ⛽

But maybe with stagflation, it will be a chance to get some good deals in stock market and eventually things will recover. 📉 After all, people who lived through the 1970s and survived, got to live in better times in later decades. 🌱 Fairly warm so maybe that will help a bit with the heating bills.

Daily Update – March 8, 2022

Good morning! Happy Tuesday.

🌹🌻🌼Only 12 days remain until the first day of calendar spring!🌹🌻🌼

Partly cloudy and 32 degrees in Delmar, NY. ⛅ Breezy, ️22 mph breeze from the west-northwest 🌬 with gusts up to 37 mph 💨💨💨. The current wind chill is 19. Things will start to thaw out at around 9 am. 🌡️

With that wind 🍃 it feels like an early March morning, not too cold but blustery. But I remind myself that April isn’t that far away. Warmer weather should be here before you know it.

The mornings are quite light now 🌅 but will be darker come next week. But only two session days next week due to Purim and Saint Patrick’s Day 🍀 so I can take the express bus 🚍 in and not walk quite as early in the morning.

I swear every time I don’t put gas in my truck ⛽ prices go up another 40 cents. But it’s not like I’m driving much these days although it’s going suck come summer although I tend to think start to clear up by summer. Either the economy will go into the crapper or the politicians will collectively realize that they have no future 🔮 and will start to play nice with Russia. Probably both. $4.45 a gallon for gasoline locally, diesel is $4.98.

I just wish the US could come to some kind of agreement with Russia. 🇷🇺 It’s not worth it to screw up the whole world’s economy over some pissy little country at the border of Russia. Oil is the currency of the world, it keeps motors spinning, power plants running. Affordable energy is key to human happiness. We don’t need to drill baby drill, or put oil wells in bad locations, but we shouldn’t be getting in a pissing match with Russia. The US should be buying Russian oil, 🛢 to keep the economy flowing. We should look to restore order in Ukraine, and if that means selling Russia surplus US military arms, then so be it. It might stink to high hell, 👃 but sometimes we have to do what is right for the world, and not what is moral. There are too many do-gooders today.

Looks like the weekend is going to rain, 🌧 which is fine because I doubt I would want to go out of town with gas prices continuing to rise. The whole situation kind of sucks, but what can I do? The incumbent in the White House gets 2 1/2 more years in there, but hopefully things will rectify themselves in coming months. There isn’t a lot to get worked up about things I don’t control. 😠 So I’ll just take a deep breathe and enjoy the clear weather out today.
