Almost A Perfect Day On Tap For Michigan

Almost A Perfect Day On Tap For Michigan

Today is expected to be one of those rare days where the weather is almost perfect; comfortable temperatures, light winds, low humidity, and plenty of sun.  Unfortunately, it will only last about a day, then the heat and humidity will return.  The past two days have been unseasonably chilly, but the sun made it feel much warmer.  There is no rain expected until the end of the week. Our 10:45 AM temp is 63F (17C), the humidity is 43%, and…

Sunny And Chilly In Mid Michigan

Sunny And Chilly In Mid Michigan

Today doesn’t feel much like summer with highs only expected to reach the mid 60s.  At least the sun is shining and that helps a little.  Winds are light also, so no wind chill effect.  The next 4-5 days are expected to be dry so hoping that it slows the grass down a bit.  Mowing two acres gets to be a bit much when it has to happen every 3-4 days.  I’m ready for a drought.  Another thing, the mosquitoes…

Cooler And Sunny For This Friday – Mid Michigan

Cooler And Sunny For This Friday – Mid Michigan

Yesterday was almost perfect with clear skies, comfortable temperatures, and a nice breeze.  It seemed good to have the windows open.  Early yesterday evening, a storm sprang up dumping 0.11 inches on us, then skies cleared once again after that.  Today our temperatures are much cooler, but with the sun, it will be a nice day. Our 10:30 AM temperature is 61F (16C), the humidity is 46%, and winds are from the WNW at 1-5 mph.  Skies are clear and…

Cristobol Left It’s Mark On Michigan

Cristobol Left It’s Mark On Michigan

Although we didn’t get any severe weather here where I live, others in the state were not as lucky.  There was a tremendous amount of damage done around Bay City and Saginaw, and also on the western side of the state.  Large trees were snapped in half with many falling on homes and autos.  The storm ravaged on for about 6 hours moving from south to north.  When it arrived here, we got very hard rain but almost no wind. …

Severe Weather A Probability Today In Michigan

Severe Weather A Probability Today In Michigan

As the remnants of Tropical Storm Cristobol approach our area, with it comes heavy rain and possible severe weather of every kind.  Temperatures last night never fell much below 80 degrees most of the night and it feels like a sauna this morning.  Skies are partly to mostly cloudy at this time, but the sun will just add to the instability, causing some pretty nasty weather later on. Our 9 AM temperature is 81F (27C), the humidity is 73% and…

A Sunny Morning Could Bring A Stormy Evening – Mid Michigan

A Sunny Morning Could Bring A Stormy Evening – Mid Michigan

The morning is starting out very warm with temps already in the mid 70s.  Tropical Storm Cristobol is heading in our direction and our weather could be affected by tonight.  Behind it will bring much cooler temperatures once again for the weekend.  So far this spring, our temps have gone from one extreme to the other.  AC one day and furnace the next.  Hopefully, it will balance out soon. Our 9:45 AM temp is 76F (24C), the humidity is 42%…

Yesterday was cloudy most of the day, but the sun began to peak through by 5 PM.  We received a little rain but hardly enough to wet the surface and that was fine.  This morning is starting out with clear skies and the forecast sounds good.  We will be heading back home tomorrow. Our 9:30 AM temperature is 59°F (15°C), the humidity is 67%, and winds are from the NW at 12 mph.  The pressure is 30.01 in (1016.4 mb)…

Cloudy And Warm For Our Friday Morning In Northern Michigan

Cloudy And Warm For Our Friday Morning In Northern Michigan

We have rain in our forecast for this afternoon, and radar is showing it already in the western portions of the state.  I’m hoping that most stays to our south, but even at that, it isn’t expected to be that much.  There is another cold front coming and temperatures this weekend are expected to only reach the 60s.  That’s okay.  I brought some warm clothes with me.  Yesterday was perfect with clear skies all day and comfortable temps and humidity….

Beautiful Weather In Northern Michigan

Beautiful Weather In Northern Michigan

We drove up here yesterday under sunny skies and very warm temperatures.  We are expecting this weather to remain through the weekend with just a chance for rain on Friday.  After all the rain that we’ve had, the mosquitoes are terrible but with plenty of bug spray, we’ve pretty much conquered that problem.  It is a bit cooler up here in Indian River than at home with highs only in the mid 70s.  For me, that’s better than the mid…

Some Real Summer Weather Ahead For Michigan

Some Real Summer Weather Ahead For Michigan

Today will really feel like summer with highs expected in the upper 80s.  The weekend was a bit chilly but nice for working in the yard.  Sunday night finished off with a shower which left 0.19″ in my gauge.  This morning is sunny and we do have a chance for some random thunderstorms later on. Our 10 AM temperature is 73F (23C), the humidity is 57%, and skies are clear.  Winds are from the W at 6-12 mph and the…
