Once again, we are affected by the Canadian wildfires, and we have a lot of smoke in the air. The sky is a mix of clouds and smoke and it’s hard to distinguish between the two. Yesterday was bad also, but then the rains came and cleared the air a little. Rain began in the late afternoon, and continued most of the night. We got 0.29 in. Detroit has been plagued by flooding and they received another 1-2 inches yesterday. …
We have one more day of this unrelenting heat, then we’ll have a period of below average temps for a chance. I’ll be loving it. This summer has been too hot and wet to even enjoy being outdoors. The mosquitoes are terrible and I can’t wait for this cooler weather to arrive. I’m hoping that these 90s are done for the year. Our 1PM temperature is 90°F, the humidity is 60% and the pressure is 29.98 in and falling,. The…
Our Saturday was cloudy and hot. It looked like rain most of the day but all we got as a few sprinkles early. Today began with dense fog, but now the sky is clear. I’m not seeing any rain in the forecast for this week at all, but we know how that can change. We need a prolonged dry spell. Our 12:15 PM temperature is 84°F, the humidity is 66% and winds are from the SW at 2-4 mph. The…
Yesterday brought very hot temperatures and scattered storms and all totally missed us. We did get a quick passing shower which dropped 0.09″ of rain in the late afternoon. Today is a little cooler but still very humid. We should get some relief from the heat tomorrow Our 2:45 PM temperature is 82°F, the humidity is 73%, and skies are mostly cloudy. Winds are from the north at 0-3 mph, and the pressure is 30.00 in and rising. The dew…
We will see temperatures in the 90s today, with the heat index over 100F This is not my kind of weather. It was very warm overnight and my AC ran all night which it usually doesn’t do. We could see some thunderstorms later today and overnight. Those would be welcome if it would cool down a little. Our 12:15 PM temperature is 90°F, the humidity is 60%, and winds are from the SW at 5-12 mph. Skies are mostly clear. …
We have another round of very hot weather, and it is expected to last for quite a while. We can expect heat indexes into the triple digits, so I don’t think we’ll be spending much time outdoors. The past two days were beautiful and we were able to give the AC a rest. I just hope that it doesn’t decide to quit working over the next week or so. Our 10 AM temperature is 74°F, the humidity is 62%, and…
This is my kind of weather. Plenty of sun and comfortable temperatures and humidity. Although there is still some smoke in the air from the wildfires, it doesn’t seem as noticeable today. It seems good to turn the AC off for awhile and enjoy the fresh air circulating through the house. Our 11:15 AM temperature is 71°F, the humidity is 69%, and winds are from the ENE at 2-4 mph. The pressure is 30.07 in and rising, and visibility is…
Once again, we are in the severe storm area on the map. The weather computers are not in agreement as to how affected we will be. Right now, we have clouds and moderate winds. Radar is showing storms to our southwest and north. One computer shows us to be in direct line for these storms. Another shows that it will split and move to our north and south, totally missing us. I guess we’ll find out This afternoon. We…
We have a thin cloud cover this morning which will increase as the day goes on. We are in the area for possible severe storms this afternoon and tonight. My area has been very lucky so far as damaging weather goes. Yesterday was very hot and there was still a lot of smoke in the air. Today doesn’t seem as bad. I wish that all this flooding rain would leave the US alone, and move up to Canada and put…
Today is hot and smoky from the Canadian wildfires. It seems that we go through this every year anymore. We are being warmed to stay indoors as much as possible, especially those with respiratory conditions. Other than that, it’s really to hot to do anything outdoors anyway. In my picture, you can see the smoky haze in the distance but I think it was worse yesterday. In the evening, you could actually smell it. The Air Quality is very unhealthy…
