The Heat Continues In Mid Michigan

The Heat Continues In Mid Michigan

Temperatures yesterday were in the mid 80s, but the humidity was very low as was the dew point, so it really wasn’t that uncomfortable.  Today will be about the same, and there is no rain in the forecast until July 8.  We wanted a drying out period and it looks like we will get it.  I haven’t looked ahead to the weather forecast for Indian River, but it is usually is a little cooler there since the Great Lakes are…

It Looks Like Hot Weather Will Be Here For A while – Mid Michigan

For anyone who loves hot summer weather, they should be overjoyed right now.  It looks like that will be our weather pattern for quite a while.  For me, that will be a bit much as I’m not a fan of anything much over 80°.  I just hope that the AC doesn’t decide to quit on us, and this is always the type of weather that it happens in.  We’ll be heading north again on Thursday for the holiday weekend, and…

Hot And Perfect Summer Weather In Northern Michigan

Yesterday and today have been perfect for summer weather lovers.  With highs in the mid to upper 80s, and very little wind, it feels very warm to say the least.  We took a drive into Cheboygan yesterday, down to the city park. and there were kids playing in the water which was only around 57°.  But kids don’t seem to care.  My inlaws have lost half of their lake front due to record water levels of Lake Huron.  It seems…
