It feels like a morning in April with temps in the 40s and highs expected near 50°. Unfortunately, it isn’t going to last. There is a very cold weather system heading our way, and highs over the next few day will only reach the mid 20s. Snow is in our forecast tonight although no significant accumulations are expected. Right now we have light rain, and the radar is showing that this will probably be with us most of the day….
This morning is starting out with overcast skies but temperatures are fairly mild for early December. We have no snow cover at this time and none is expected anytime soon. We could see a few peeks of the sun later but conditions should remain dry. Our 11 AM temperature is 30°F (-1°C), the humidity is 71% and skies are overcast. Winds are from the south at 8 mph, and the pressure is 30.41 in and falling. The dew point is…
We are seeing a little sun this morning but the wind is already picking up, making it feel colder than what it is. Just seeing the sun makes it a pleasant morning. The snow that we received is now gone, and we aren’t really expecting any significant amounts anytime soon. The weather has been quite normal so far this season with the exception of the snowstorm that we had in early November. I’m hoping that it stays that way. Our…
We had a snow shower develop yesterday evening just to our northwest, and it proceeded to move in our direction, gaining momentum as it advanced toward us. It dropped an inch of snow on us in a short time. It didn’t last long, just enough to make the roads wet and obstruct vision a bit. I hate driving on wet roads when it’s dark, and with the daylight hours so minimal right now, I try to do all my running…
We have been getting a few flakes of snow intermittently throughout the morning but most on the ground is gone. It’s a grey, dark day with temperatures barely above freezing. There’s enough wind to drop the “feels like” temps to uncomfortable levels, so not a nice day to be outdoors. I have a Christmas Dinner at the hospital this afternoon which I’m attending with a friend that I worked with years ago The hospital always invites retirees which is nice….
We received about an inch of snow yesterday morning, but by afternoon, it was almost gone. We have an additional quarter of an inch this morning and everything is white again. Temperatures have barely made it above freezing and this is expected to continue most of this week. There are no significant weather systems in our immediate future, so this week should be rather quiet weather-wise. Our 9 AM temperature is 28°F (-2°C), the humidity is 88%, and skies are…
Our Thanksgiving Day was nice although the weather was chilly and cloudy. I guess that would be normal for the end of November here in Michigan. The kids were all home and everyone was stuffed. This weekend, we’re expecting a mix of rain and possible freezing rain tonight through early tomorrow. We are sort of on the boundary for the mix, and northern Michigan is expecting much worse. I just hope that the forecast doesn’t change. Our 11:15 AM temperature…
After having winds up to 60 mph in many areas yesterday, many in Mid Michigan are without power today. Thankfully, we aren’t one of them. There was plenty of damage in the Saginaw-Bay City area but Shiawassee County seemed to be spared from the worst of it. After highs in the 50s yesterday, we won’t even make it to 40° today but at least the winds have subsided. Our 9:30 AM temperature is 33°F (1°C), the humidity is 76%, and…
After heavy overnight rain, our skies are clearing and the sun is out. There was 0.86″ in my rain gauge this morning, and we did hear a few rumbles of thunder last night. A winter storm warning is in effect for the upper peninsula, and up to 3 feet of snow is expected in the western and central areas. Travelers are being warned to wait until Thursday to do any necessary driving. The lower peninsula is expecting mostly rain but…
This morning feels like a day in March, but unfortunately, it isn’t going to last. We have a rather potent storm system moving our way for Wednesday. Although we aren’t expecting any snow, winds will be the issue. I’m hoping that we don’t lose power with the holiday on Thursday. That’s all we’d need. The upper peninsula of Michigan is under a winter storm warning as well as lakeshore flood warnings. Northern lower is under a winter weather advisory for…
