Cloudy And Chilly For Our Final Day Of March – Mid Michigan

Cloudy And Chilly For Our Final Day Of March – Mid Michigan

March is certainly not exiting as a lion but it isn’t going to be the nicest day either.  Monday brought a few raindrops but there was only 0.01″ in my rain gauge.  We could see the same today but it is dry at this time.  Highs today will only be in the mid 40s but at least the winds should be light.  Seeing a little sun would be nice but I don’t think it will happen. Our 9:15 AM temp…

Back To Normal Weather For March’s End – Mid Michigan

Back To Normal Weather For March’s End – Mid Michigan

After a blustery, wet, chilly Sunday, our temperatures have fallen to where they really should be for this time of year.  We get a few warm, sunny days and it spoils us, but we must remember that it really is still March.  We had off and on showers most of our Sunday and there was 0.05″ in my rain gauge this morning.  This afternoon should be drier but I don’t think that we’ll be seeing any sun.  I can’t believe…

Our First Thunderstorm Of The Year – Mid Michigan

Our First Thunderstorm Of The Year – Mid Michigan

We had a pretty significant thunderstorm last night just after midnight which dropped 0.44 in of rain.  That gave us a total of 1.32 in over the last 24 hours.  This morning is very mild and partly sunny with very little wind.  We are under a wind advisory for this afternoon with gusts expected near 40 mph.  You would never suspect it with the way it is right now.  Everything is nice and green and spring thunderstorms always seem to…

A Very Wet Saturday In Mid Michigan

A Very Wet Saturday In Mid Michigan

Light rain began late last night and continued throughout the night.  There was 0.88″ in my gauge at 8:30 AM.  Some areas reported thunder but none here that I know of.  We continue to have light rain as I type this, and it is expected to continue into tomorrow.  It has been a while since we had a good rain, so I guess we do need it.  Temperatures will continue to be quite mild, and there are no extreme cold…

A Nice Friday Expected Before A Wet Weekend – Mid Michigan

A Nice Friday Expected Before A Wet Weekend – Mid Michigan

Our morning is starting out with cloudy skies  and cool temperatures.  Highs should make it into the mid 50s today with some sun this afternoon.  Our weekend, however, is not looking good with rain in the forecast for most of it.  The extended forecast is showing highs in the 50s everyday for the upcoming week which will be a good start for April.  We could even have a thunderstorm tomorrow night.  I’m hoping that we do so that our grass…

Today’s Weather Should Be Wonderful – Mid Michigan

Today’s Weather Should Be Wonderful – Mid Michigan

This should be the pick day of the week with temperatures rising into the upper 50s, and could even hit 60° in some places.  It is cloudy right now but we should see quite a bit of sun later.  It will be good to get outdoors, and that should be good for the spirits for those going stir crazy from being confined from this virus.  This is indeed a strange time for most of us, being confined to our homes. …

A Very White Monday Morning In Mid Michigan

A Very White Monday Morning In Mid Michigan

We have about 2 inches of very wet snow to start our week.  It’s actually quite pretty and just wet enough that it is sticking to everything.  We can enjoy snow this time of year because we know that it will melt right away.  Highs today are expected to reach the mid 40s so I don’t see it to lasting very long.  The sun is trying to make an appearance and we do have quite a heavy cloud cover.  As…

It Feels Like January This 2nd Day Of Spring – Mid Michigan

It Feels Like January This 2nd Day Of Spring – Mid Michigan

It looks beautiful out there this morning, until you stick your head out.  Everything was covered in frost but the sun really brightened things up.  It seems good to see daylight at 7:30 AM again.  I always get up fairly early in the morning and I hate it being dark so late.  Today will not be warm and highs are only expected to reach the upper 30s to 40° if we’re lucky.  I even heard that we could get up…

A Trace Of Snow For Our Saturday Morning – Mid Michigan

After the beautiful weather that we have had lately, this morning is a shock to the system.  It feels like February once again and highs will only make it to the mid 30s this afternoon.  What a difference a day makes.  There was even a trace of snow on my deck this morning.  At least this time of the year, we know that it won’t last long. Our 10:30 AM temperature is 25°F (-4°C), the humidity is 74% and skies…
