A Dreary, Rainy Day . . . .

A Dreary, Rainy Day . . . .

Weather-wise, today is not nice at all.  It is cold, drizzly and enough wind to drive the cold right through you.  Yes, it is a typical day for late November in Michigan.  I guess I’ll just plan to stay indoors again today. Our 10 AM temperature is 41°F  (5°C), the humidity is 94%, and winds are from the NW at 4-7 mph.  Skies are overcast with drizzle, and the wind chill is 3°6F (2°C).  The pressure is 29.64 in and…

First Snow Of The Season . . . .

First Snow Of The Season . . . .

We had a very light covering of snow this morning, just on bare surfaces.  Now we have occasional sprinkles of rain and very chilly temperatures.  It really feels like winter out there.  We are now seeing a few peeks of the sun, coming out from behind dark clouds.  There is just enough wind to make it even colder, so I’m not going to be outdoors anymore than I have to. Our 2:30 PM temperature is 39°F (4°C), the humidity is…

Falling Temps Expected . . . .

Falling Temps Expected . . . .

This won’t be a nice day if you have to be outdoors.  Temperatures are mild to start out, but they will be dropping throughout the afternoon.  We had a little rain overnight, but a more significant band is heading our way.  Winds will also be picking up so there will be a wind chill to deal with.  But it is November after all. Our 9:45 AM temperature is 49°F (9°C), the humidity is 87%, and winds are from the west…

Another Dark, November Day . . . .

Another Dark, November Day . . . .

Our day began with light rain and cloudy skies.  Now it looks like the sun is trying to make an appearance.   Highs will reach near the low 60s and we’ll take it.  It’s actually quite nice outdoors right now.  I don’t ever remember having an autumn like this before.  It just doesn’t want to end.  But we better enjoy because I’m hearing that we could see snow for the first time on Thursday but not sure about any accumulations yet. …

Dense Fog This Morning . . . .

Dense Fog This Morning . . . .

We have dense fog this morning with visibility less than a mile.  Once that burns off, it should be a fairly decent day.  We should see quite a bit of sun today, then rain, and even snow, are in the forecast for the remainder of the week.  There is no great amounts of snow expected, just flurries at best. . . .  but we are almost at the end of November after all. Our 9AM temp is 39°F, the humidity…

More Cloudiness . . . .

More Cloudiness . . . .

We have another day with cloudy skies but no precipitation.  Highs will remain above average through Wednesday, then much cooler air moves in.  The winter holidays are just around the corner and I’m not ready for them yet.  I hate the thought of Christmas shopping, even though I do most online.  It seems to get harder every year. Our 1:15 PM temperature is 52°F, the humidity is 78%, and skies are mostly cloudy.  Winds are from the SW at 5-10…

Gloomy, Chilly Today . . . . .

Gloomy, Chilly Today . . . . .

Yesterday brought cloudy skies and a little drizzle.  Today is dry but dreary.  Winds are very light and our temperature is still above average, which is fine.  I thought that we might see a little sun today, but I guess not.  I’m already seeing some Christmas lights going up around the area.  That helps make these dark days a little brighter. Our 2:30 PM temperature is 48°F, the humidity is 70%, and winds are from the SE at 3-6 mph. …

Another Dark, Dismal Day . . . .

Another Dark, Dismal Day . . . .

After a rainy, drizzly day on Thursday, today is dry but no sun to be found.  This looks like a typical November Michigan day.  Temperatures are right where they should be tor this time of year, and it’s good for the deer hunters.  Rifle season started today and two neighbors are out hunting.  My husband doesn’t do it anymore, so we let a neighbor hunt on our land.  We have plenty of deer around here for sure. Our 12 noon…

A Rainy, Dark Morning . . . .

A Rainy, Dark Morning . . . .

Rain began last night and continued through the overnight.  There was 0.25″ in my gauge at 8:30 this morning.  It is still drizzling at this time and temps remain in the mid 40s.  I don’t think that we’ll see any sun today. Our 10:45 AM temperature is 45°F, the humidity is 96%, and skies are overcast.  Winds are from the SE at 4-8 mph, and the pressure is 29.62 in and steady.  The dew point is 43°F and visibility is…

Not A Bad November Day . . . . .

Not A Bad November Day . . . . .

Our morning was bright, but now the sky is mostly cloudy.  It’s a little breezy but temperatures are warmer than yesterday.  It’s not a bad day to get out and do something.  My outdoor furniture is still on the deck, and I hate to put it away as long as we keep getting these days of warm weather.  I think I’ll wait until we have snow in the forecast. Our 1:15 PM temperature is 50°F, the humidity is 47%, and…
