Another Wet Halloween In Mid Michigan

Another Wet Halloween In Mid Michigan

Just when we thought that Halloween would be nice this year, it certainly isn’t.  At least it is fairly warm and not snowing.  For us it really doesn’t matter because we don’t get any trick or treaters anyway, but I still like nice weather for those who still go out.  This morning is wet and foggy again.  This is the third morning  with fog, but today we are not expecting any sun to burn it off.  Temps are expected to…

Dense Fog Becomes A Sunny Day – Mid Michigan

Dense Fog Becomes A Sunny Day – Mid Michigan

We had dense fog early this morning but it burned off quickly.  Now it is sunny with a few clouds in the sky and light winds.  Temperatures should reach the low to mid 60s so it’s going to be a winner of a day.  Not sure yet what I’ll be doing but I’ll try to get out and enjoy it as much as I can. Our 11:30 AM temperature is 52°F, the humidity is 95%, and skies are mostly clear. …

A Lovely But Chilly Day In Mid Michigan

A Lovely But Chilly Day In Mid Michigan

Although a jacket is needed to be outdoors today, winds are light and it’s a good day to go out and do almost anything.  We have some work being done to the outside of our house, and the guys finally have a nice day to do it.  We are expecting a period a dry weather, with each day being a little warmer that the previous one.  I love it and hope it continues up to Thanksgiving.  We should see highs…

A Nice Change In Our Weather – Mid Michigan

A Nice Change In Our Weather – Mid Michigan

After a wet, dreary Wednesday, today is bright and sunny but temperatures are below average once again.  There is little wind and with the sun, it is very pleasant.  I’m hearing predictions of a very snowy winter for our part of the country, and that has come from three different sources.  Could they all be wrong?  At least, being retired, I don’t have to worry about trying to get to work in a snowstorm.  Those days are past, but we…

The rain began late last night and is continuing this afternoon.  There was 0.21″ in my gauge at 9AM and it has been raining since then.  Temps have been dropping all morning and are now in the 40s.  I’m glad that I don’t have to go anywhere today.  It’s not a pretty day at all.

Rain On The Way For Mid Michigan

Rain On The Way For Mid Michigan

It looks like our wonderful weather is coming to an end.  We are seeing increasing clouds as the day goes on and rain is in the forecast for tonight.  Temperatures will still be mild  so it should be pleasant one last day.  A local meteorologist said yesterday that we should continue to see many above average temps well into November so I hope he’s right. Our 11AM temperature is 66°F, the humidity is 48%, and winds are from the SW…

Our Last Warm, Sunny Day Before The Transition – Mid Michigan

Our Last Warm, Sunny Day Before The Transition – Mid Michigan

My husband and I took a ride early today to see what remains of our autumn colors.  Many trees are already bare, but the maples seem to be hanging tough.  It is absolutely gorgeous with highs now expected in the upper 70s today.  There is just enough breeze to feel comfortable and the humidity is low.  As I’ve said before, this autumn season has been spectacular here in mid Michigan and I hate to see it end. Our 2 PM…

Another Wonderful Unseasonable Day In Mid Michigan

Another Wonderful Unseasonable Day In Mid Michigan

Yesterday was great but today is even better.  We should see high temps reaching the mid 70s although it will be quite breezy.  But we won’t complain.  This should continue up to Tuesday when more rain is expected.  This autumn season has been wonderful and I wouldn’t mind a bit if it stretched into November, but I don’t think that will happen.  Just thankful for what we’re getting. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 69°F, the humidity is 43%, and skies…

A Lovely Sunny Day In Mid Michigan

A Lovely Sunny Day In Mid Michigan

After the cold, rainy weather of the past 2 days, we now have plenty of sun and much warmer temperatures.  This is expected to last through the next 3 days.  It is certainly welcome after the miserable weather that we had, but I guess we may as well get used to it.  With November knocking on the door, I have a feeling that we are going to see a lot of  this coming soon. Our 1 PM temperature is 65F,…

Weather Transition For Mid Michigan

Weather Transition For Mid Michigan

Our morning began with clouds and rain, but now the sun is out and temps are warming up a bit.  They should only reach the upper 40s, but with the sun, that will be pleasant.  It was raining when we went to the store this morning, and it appeared to be mixed with a little snow.  Some on my flowers are still hanging in there.  My mums are in full bloom and the roses are looking good.  My hanging baskets…
