Today should be the last of this oppressive weather.  A cold front will move through with more storms expected, then some decent weather will be a welcome relief.   We should see highs only in the 70s for the remainder of the week.  This has been an unusually stormy early September for Michigan.  I hope that it is over for the remainder of our autumn season.

Right now (11 AM), our temp is 84°F (29°C), the humidity is 66%, and skies are mostly clear.    Winds are from the southwest at 10 mph, gusting to 16 mph.  The dew point is 72°F  (22°C) and the pressure is 30.12 in and falling.  The heat index is 89°F (32°C) and visibility is 10 miles.  Yesterday’s high was 90°F (32°C) and the overnight low was 74°F (24°C).  Averages for this date are 79°F / 55°F.  Our high yesterday tied the record which was previously set in 1948.
