Yesterday began with sun and ended with some state-wide severe weather. We had a few showers and a little thunder, but nothing severe. As of late last night, many on the west side of the state were without power, and severe thunderstorm warnings were in effect until the wee hours of the morning. We could see a repeat tonight. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 78°F, the humidity is 67%, and skies are mostly clear although I think there is smoke…
The severe thunderstorm watch area hasn’t quite reach us as yet, but I’m expecting it any time. Fox weather radar is showing it to hit us about 6 or 7 PM. I find the Fox radar to be most accurate when it comes to timing these storms. Right now, we have hazy sun but the clouds are becoming more dense. Temperatures are expected to reach the mid 80s by the time the storms reach us, and I’m not seeing much…
Over the past two days, we finally got some much needed rain. Our overall weather has been hot and humid and this is typical for August in Michigan. We could see some strong storms over the weekend and early next week, but that’s always a possibility when the weather is hot and humid. Our 12 noon temperature is 79°F, the humidity is 70%, and skies are partly cloudy. Winds are from the SW at 2-7 mph, and the pressure is…
Yesterday, the rain moved in during the early afternoon, then became heavier as the day wore on. The heaviest came during the early evening up until about 9 PM. We received just under two inches of rain. So far today, it has been dry but it looks like we will get a little more. Temperatures are much cooler and that always makes me happy. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 75°F, the humidity is 83%, and skies are overcast. Winds are…
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. Our 3:30 PM temperature is 81°F, the humidity is 38%, and winds are from the NNE at 2-9 mph. Skies are mostly clear with a few straggly clouds, and the pressure is 30.15 in and steady. The dew point is 51°F and visibility is 10 miles. Yesterdays high was 80°F and the overnight low was 57°F. Average temps for…
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. …
