Damp And Foggy In Mid Michigan

Damp And Foggy In Mid Michigan

Yesterday began with fog and drizzle.  This morning, we have fog but no rain.  There was only 0.01″ in my rain gauge, and local forecasters promised that we would see some sun today.  Temperatures are supposed to make it up to the low 70s, so it is expected to be a nice day. Our 9:15 AM temperature is 57°F (14°C), the humidity is 97%, and skies are overcast.  Winds are from the north at 0-2 mph, and the dew point…

Feels Like Fall In Mid Michigan

Feels Like Fall In Mid Michigan

It’s a dark, damp and gloomy day on this Friday.  We did have some light fog and drizzle most of the morning.  We were told yesterday that there should be some clearing this afternoon, but no sign of it yet.  Highs aren’t expected to even reach 70 degrees today, and most of the next week is expected to be cool.  The mosquitoes are horrible after all the rain that we’ve had.  They attack as soon as you walk out the…

Very Damp And Chilly In Mid Michigan

Very Damp And Chilly In Mid Michigan

We had two storms yesterday.  The first gave us 0.19″ of rain early in the afternoon.  The second, a quite active thunderstorm, dropped about 0.58″ on us around 8:30 last night.   I can’t say that we really needed it.  This morning is a bit chilly and temperatures aren’t expected to rise much from where they are now.  We have light fog and it is starting out to be a dreary day, but at least we are rid of the…

Rain On The Way In Mid Michigan

Rain On The Way In Mid Michigan

After a very hot Tuesday, we should get some relief today as thunderstorms move in.  Temperatures are expected to cool down drastically for the rest of the week.  As usual, we go from one extreme to the other.  We may not even see 70 degrees on a few days, but I’ll take that over 90 anytime.  Radar is showing the rain not too far off so it looks like it could be a rather wet day. Our 11 AM temperature…

Last Of Our Hot Weather – Mid Michigan

Last Of Our Hot Weather – Mid Michigan

Today should finalize this very uncomfortable heat, and I for one am glad.  This is much too warm for early September and a record will likely be broken today.  There is a chance for rain later tonight, but most is expected over the next several days.  With it will come unseasonably cool temperatures, and it sounds really good to me.  It could be a tad bit warmer but I won’t complain. Our 2:15 PM temperature is 89°F (32°C), the humidity…

Labor Day In Mid Michigan

Labor Day In Mid Michigan

We have wonderful weather to end the Holiday weekend.  Temperatures may break the record high with them expected to reach into the low 90s.  It’s already pretty warm but the breeze keeps it comfortable . . . . . . at least for now.  There is no rain in the forecast although we could see an increase in the cloud cover later.  I hope that this weather will keep repeating as the month rolls on. Our 11:45 AM temperature is…

A Hot Spell Begins Today – Mid Michigan

A Hot Spell Begins Today – Mid Michigan

After a week of comfortable weather, we have to deal with a few very hot days.  We should see temps in the 90s until mid-week.  I guess we can put up with it that long.  I’m not a fan of hot weather, but as long as the humidity isn’t too high, it’s tolerable for me. Our 11 AM temperature is 77°F (25°C), the humidity is 66%, and skies are clear.  Winds are from the SW at 4-8 mph, and the…

Great Weather For Our Labor Day Weekend – Mid Michigan

Great Weather For Our Labor Day Weekend – Mid Michigan

We have another nice day for our holiday weekend.  Although the skies have been mostly cloudy, temperatures are comfortable.  We did have a few sprinkles earlier but just a few.  There is no rain in the forecast until the middle of this coming week.  Tomorrow, temps will be on the rise with highs reaching into the 90s  before the next rain comes.  I’m hoping that we have a long and lovely autumn. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 77°F, the humidity…

A Lovely Beginning To The Holiday Weekend – Mid Michigan

A Lovely Beginning To The Holiday Weekend – Mid Michigan

Today is the beginning of the Labor Day Weekend, as well as the beginning of Meteorological Autumn.  That’s what I go by as far as seasons go, so to me, it is now autumn.  Summer is over.  We can see the daylight hours getting shorter and there is definitely the feeling of Fall in the air.  I haven’t seen many trees changing color yet, but I’m sure it will happen soon. Our 10 AM temperature is 65°F, the humidity is…
