After several cooler days, our temperatures have once again returned to furnace status. We will see highs close to 90°F, but showers will bring relief for the weekend and next week. Our 11 AM temperature is 81°F, the humidity is 45%, and skies are clear. Winds are light from the west, and the pressure is 30.16 in and falling. The dew point is 57°F and visibility is 10 miles. The air quality index is moderate at 65. Yesterdays high was…
Today is warm but not hot; the humidity comfortable, and winds are just nice. It doesn’t get any better than this.

We could be in store for some pretty heavy weather tonight and tomorrow. Michigan Storm Chasers are giving us a 30-40% chance for severe weather tomorrow. They will be giving updates throughout today with the latest information. Right now we have sun and very warm temperatures. Highs could reach near 90°F once again, but the storms should cool it down. Our 1 PM temperature is 83°F, the humidity is 51%, and winds are from the west at 0-5 mph, and…
The past two days have been pleasantly comfortable with temperatures barely rising to 80°F. Today will reach the mid 80s but the humidity won’t be too bad. We are being warned that the beginning of next week could be stormy, but no rain expected until then. We’ve been lucky so far when it comes to severe weather. Our 3:15 PM temperature is 82°F, the humidity is 41%, and skies are partly cloudy. Winds are from the SW at 4-11 mph,…
This cooler weather really seems good to me. I could deal with this this the rest of summer. We had a few drops of rain on Tuesday that barely measured in my gauge. Now there is no rain in the forecast until this weekend. It is getting quite dry. Our 12:45 PM temperature is 74°F, the humidity is 37%, and winds are from the WNW at 2-5 mph. The pressure is 30.43 in and steady and the dew point is…
We were expecting thunderstorms overnight, but all we got was a few drops of rain. Today is partly sunny and breezy. Temperatures are right where they should be for this time of year. Thankfully the smoke is gone but it has been replaced with high humidity. At least it’s safe to go outdoors again. Our 1 PM temperature is 82°F, the humidity is 52%, and winds are from the west at 5-11 mph. The pressure is 29.79 in and falling. …
We had a brief, heavy rainstorm yesterday afternoon that dropped 0.39″ in my gauge. It also brought cooler temperatures and less smoke for awhile. We are still under an air quality alert but smoke is not nearly as noticeable as it has been. These cooler temps are a relief after what we have had and I hope they last a while. Our 1:15 PM temperature is 74°F, the humidity is 45% and the pressure is 30.22 in and steady. The…
We thought it was bad yesterday, but the smoke in the air seems even worse today. Many outdoor events are being cancelled and this situation is really getting everyone upset. Canada has to do something about these fires. Summertime is for outdoor living and this sure hampers any camping plans. Our 3 PM temperature is 87°F, the humidity is 44%, and winds are from the SSE at 4-6 mph. The pressure is 29.89 in and falling and the dew point…
Our air today is very smokey. It looks like fog, but it’s smoke. We are warned not to go outdoors anymore than necessary and to wear a mask if possible. At least it has cooled down a bit from the previous two days. The fires are mostly in Canada but I think there is one in northern Minnesota also. We had some thunderstorms develop to our northwest late yesterday afternoon, but no rain. They managed to slip just to our…
Today will not be a good day to be outdoors. Not only because it is hot, but we are under attack from Canadian wildfires once again. It seems like this is becoming an annual event. My picture was taken at the Mackinaw Bridge this morning, and the smoke is so thick that the towers on the bridge aren’t even visible. Most hasn’t reached us yet, but the air quality alert goes into effect at 3 PM. Yesterday reached 100F for…
