Our weekend is starting out with blustery weather and rain. It’s going to be a not-so-nice Easter for us. I was hoping that the forecast would change but no such luck. What’s worse is that there is no warmup in the foreseeable future. A wind advisory is in effect with gusts up to 50 mph possible this afternoon. I’m hoping that there will be no power outages. The generator is in place just in case. Our 1 PM temperature is…
Mother Nature is giving us the promise of sunshine today although temperatures will be cool. That’s better than what we are expecting next week. Highs are predicted to only be in the 30s all week long and snow is in the forecast once again. The rain that we received over the past three days has greened the grass up a little but not enough to start it growing. We need a good thunderstorm but I don’t see that happening anytime…
Our Thursday morning is mild but fog is developing at the present time. We received 0.03″ overnight and showers are expected to continue through the day. Highs will continue to fall as we go through the weekend and Sunday will feel more like Christmas than Easter. Our first week of April will be cold with the possibility of some snow. Spring is having a hard time taking hold this year and I have heard that long-range predictions are calling for…
This morning is starting out damp and cloudy but the sun is expected to make a showing later this afternoon. Temperatures could reach near the 50 mark, so it should be a lovely afternoon. Unfortunately, it isn’t going to last through our Easter weekend. And to make things worse, our first week of April is expected to bring more winter weather including some accumulating snow. Winter just doesn’t’ want to let go this year. Our 9:15 AM temp is 39°F…
We have finally received some rain although we could use much more. There was 0.21″ in my gauge at 8 AM and it is still sprinkling. Radar is showing much more to come. This week will see above average temperatures, then cooling off once again for Easter weekend. There is even the possibility of snow or rain/snow mix, something that most of us don’t want to hear. Our 9 AM temp is 42°F (5°C), the humidity is 88%, and skies…
We should enjoy today because the remainder of the week doesn’t sound so good. We should reach the 50s this afternoon but there will still be a brisk wind from the southeast. Then rain will move in tonight. Looking ahead to Easter weekend, it doesn’t look too promising with highs only in the 40s and a rain/snow mix is possible. I’m hoping that the forecast changes by then. Our 9:15 AM temperature is 37°F (3°C), The humidity is 81%, and…
Looking out my window, I see a beautiful day with plenty of sun. Unfortunately, we continue to have a strong wind blowing from the east and it is cold! Things are supposed to improve next week with highs in the 50s finally. There is also rain expected but that’s okay. We really do need some rain. Although the snow is finally gone, our lawns are brown and dead looking. It’s hard to believe that next week is Easter already and…
This has been a very dry month for us and burn bans have now been issued. We haven’t had any rain since the first week of March, and none is expected until possibly Tuesday. I’m in the mood for a good thunderstorm to green things up a bit. The lawn is brown and dead-looking and it’s time for nature to start waking up. Our 9:15 AM temp is 26°F (-3°C), the humidity is 68%, and skies are partly cloudy. Winds…
It seems a bit strange to have such an extended period of dry weather at this time of the year here in Michigan. This is usually our rainy/stormy time of year. There isn’t any rain in the forecast until next Tuesday and that’s only a 50% chance at that. Seeing what is going on in the east, we have been very lucky. Our 9:15 AM temp is 27°F (-2°C), the humidity is 71%, and winds are from the NW at…
This morning is very chilly with temps in the teens. We did have a lovely sunrise which compensates a bit, but it would certainly be nice for warmer weather to arrive. Our snow is gone except for shady areas and we’re hoping that there will be no more this season. Ou 8:15 AM temp is 19°F (-7°C), the humidity is 70%, and winds are from the NW at 5 mph giving us a wind chill of 14°F (-10°C). The pressure…
