Feels Like January In Mid Michigan

Feels Like January In Mid Michigan

Yesterday was miserable with temps that didn’t even make it out of the 30s, and just enough wind to make it feel even colder.  We did see a few peeks of sun  as well as scattered snow flurries from time to time.  At least today the sun is out and temperatures should be a little warmer.  We do have another warm front coming for the weekend, but unfortunately, it looks like it may be wet as well.  At least it…

High Winds Will Be The Issue Today – Mid Michigan

We are currently under a high wind warning from 11AM until 7PM with gusts expected up to 60 mph.  It is quite warm at the present time, but temperatures will continue to fall most of the day.  We received 0.41″ of rain overnight and radar is showing much more on the way.  I’m hoping that we don’t loose power.

Mix Of Sun And Clouds For Our Friday The 3th – Mid Michigan

Mix Of Sun And Clouds For Our Friday The 3th – Mid Michigan

Yesterday was quite nice with a lot of sun and almost no wind.  By afternoon, clouds started rolling in but we received no rain until the overnight hours.  There was only 0.04″ in my gauge this morning, so it wasn’t much.  Today has been mostly cloudy but the sun is managing to show itself from time to time.  There is about 80% cloud cover and temps and the wind chill are not very comfortable.  Our Friday the 13th has been…

Our 9 AM temperature is 31F (-1C), the humidity is 99% and we had a heavy frost this morning.  Skies are mostly clear and…

Cloudy And Much Colder In Mid Michigan

Cloudy And Much Colder In Mid Michigan

Yesterday’s temperature remained in the low 70s until the storms rolled in.  Even at that, they remained in the upper 60s until after midnight.  This morning is a different story, however.  It definitely feels like November today.  The past week has been a real treat for us Michiganders but the honeymoon is over.  Our extended forecast is still calling for temperatures above normal into early December so we really can’t complain too much.  There was 0.25″ of rain in my…

Our Summer-Like Weather Is Coming To An End In Mid Michigan

We are enjoying the final day of our unseasonable warm weather although the winds are very strong which makes it feel a bit cooler.  Also there hasn’t been much sun today and rain is expected to move in tonight.  The remainder of this week will see temperatures more in the normal range but it is still expected to be dry.  This has been a beautiful autumn for us and the extended forecast is calling for above-normal temps continuing into early…

More Record Breaking Temperatures For Mid Michigan

More Record Breaking Temperatures For Mid Michigan

This weather has been unbelievable although it will be coming to an end by Wednesday.  Yesterday was sunny most of the day with a brief period of clouds in the afternoon.  Highs made it into the upper 70s once again breaking previous records.  It seems strange to see people out and about in shorts, and there is certainly a lot of outdoor activity as people get their last summer fix before the snow flies.  I don’t ever recall having such…

Can’t Beat This Early November Weather In Mid Michigan

Can’t Beat This Early November Weather In Mid Michigan

This weather that we’ve been having is phenomenal.  Skies have been clear with highs reaching into the 70s.  This is very unusual for November in Michigan, and it is expected to continue int0 Tuesday.  What is really unusual is that it has lasted an entire week.  I wish that it could continue up to Christmas but I know that is asking too much.  I’m actually wearing summer clothes today and highs are expected to reach the mid 70s.  I love…

Another Warm, Unseasonable Day For Mid Michigan

Another Warm, Unseasonable Day For Mid Michigan

Yesterday was much warmer than what was predicted.  Our high made it up to 73F and the predicted high was 68F.  It wasn’t quite enough to break a record, but we loved it none-the-less.  Skies were clear all day and the sun made it feel even warmer.  The winds were pretty brisk but it was still a lovely day.  Today has been mostly cloudy with a few peeks of the sun.  Temperatures aren’t expected to be quite as warm but…

Sunny, Warm, But Windy – Mid Michigan

Sunny, Warm, But Windy – Mid Michigan

Today looks like a beautiful day except the winds are picking up once again.  At least the temperatures will be warm enough that it won’t seem so cold.  Election day is now over, thank heavens, and I’m so happy that we won’t be bombarded with campaign ads anymore.  It still isn’t clear who won, and I’m hoping that it is resolved soon. Our 9 AM temp is 52F (11C), the humidity is 71%, and winds are from the SW at…
