Good evening. Currently overcast and 35 degrees in Delmar. Tonight’s Waxing Gibbous Moon with 79% illuminated is setting around 4:30 AM.
Tonight we will have a chance of snow showers and sleet before 4am, then a chance of rain showers between 4am and 5am, then a chance of sleet after 5am. Cloudy, with a low around 31. Breezy, with a south wind 20 to 23 mph, with gusts as high as 45 mph. Chance of precipitation is 40%. New snow and sleet accumulation of less than one inch possible.
In four weeks on March 18 the sun will be setting at 7:06 pm, which is 1 hour and 33 minutes later then tonight. That is the first Friday in daylight savings time.
As you saw from my earlier post, I survived defensive driving class. It was such a long six hours. Such a gory class, and I’ve taken it so many times, that it’s fairly pointless except for the insurance discount. Driving really is a dangerous, deadly activity. I took the rest of the day off from work and headed home. In a little bit, I’m going to head to Walmart or Staples and get a flash drive so I can use my new TV tuner to save and play video.
You know after all these years, I kind of like being able to watch TV at home. The picture is quite beautiful on the LCD screen and makes it easier to understand world events with the visual. I can still work on my laptop or make breakfast and flip through the channels and see what is happening in the news. I can mute the audio and listen to NPR and get twice the news at once.
Other than that, no real weekend plans but hope to get out for a hike somewhere in the Albany area. Saturday’s forecast seems quite nice. We will see.
