Tuesday was beautiful, both in Northern Michigan and lower portions of the state.  We drove home yesterday and had to detour around one road which had been washed out by Sunday’s storms.  There is more rain in the forecast today but mainly up north.  I’m glad that we decided to come home yesterday.  I can’t really complain as our weather up there was wonderful most of the week.

Our 11:30 AM temperature is 76°F (24°C), the humidity is 44% and skies are partly cloudy.  Winds are from the south at 12 mph, gusting to 18 mph.  The pressure is 29.98 in (1015.2 mb) and falling.  The dew point is 51°F (11°C) and visibility is 10 miles.  Yesterday’s high was 76°F (24°C) and the overnight low was 55°F (13°C).  Averages for this date are 77°F / 55°F.
