My heart goes out to those in Ohio and Indiana who are victims of the tornadoes last night.  Michigan was lucky once again, and all we got was moderate to heavy rain.  There is one lightning strike showing on my weather station, but it was 15 miles away.  There was 0.40″ in my rain gauge this morning and most of the rain was done by early evening.  Today will still be mild but I don’t think we’ll see much sun, unless it happens later this afternoon.

Our 12 Noon temperature is 42°F (6°C), the humidity is 88%, and skies are overcast.  Winds are from the NW at 1-3 mph, and the pressure is 30.04 in (1017.3 mb) and rising.  Visibility is 10 miles  Yesterday’s high was 53°F (12°C) and the overnight low was 33°F (1°C).  Average temps for this date are 43°F/25°F.  The record high for March 13 is 79°F (26°C) set in 2012, and the record low is -2°F (-19°C) set in 1877.  Sunrise was at 7:39 AM, and sunset will be at 7:44 PM.
