Radar is showing a large mass of rain moving in from the southwest. The past two days have been lovely so at least we got a little break. My husband managed to get the lawn mowed yesterday. Today is expected to be wet most of the day along with cool temps. Some towns in the UP saw snow for the first time yesterday and I hope it is a while before we do. I’m hearing that we will be seeing…
Yesterday was absolutely gorgeous. Our temps made it into the 80s and the humidity was low. There was a nice breeze which kept the house comfortable with the windows open. Storms were rolling in late in the day but they didn’t affect us here where I am. Inf fact, there was only 0.08″ in my gauge this morning. The UP, however, received some pretty heavy weather but I haven’t heard of any storm damage as yet. Today is also a…
Tuesday was damp and misty all day. There was an additional 0.06″ in my gauge this morning, and although the rain has finally stopped, it is still damp and not a pleasant morning to be sure. Our temperatures will be very warm with highs expected near 80°F. This warm-up is expected to last for a few days although it won’t be dry. Rain is in the forecast almost everyday, and not much sun is expected. Our lawn is about 4…
Yesterday could be described as a total washout. It would quit raining for a little while, then start up again with a vengeance. Over the past four days, we received almost three inches of rain. I think that we have enough for a while. Right now, we have fog and light mist. Temperatures will start to rise today and continue over the next few days as a brief warm front moves in from the south. There is a chance of…
It seems like all it has done for the past week is rain. As of 8:15 this morning, there was 1.24 in of rain in my gauge and it is still coming down. Since yesterday morning, we have received just under two inches. Looking at the radar, showers and storms are training from the west, so it looks to be a very wet Monday. I hope that this doesn’t continue through the entire month of October and into the winter…
Looks like it’s going to be another grey day here in Topinabee. It rained off and on most of the night. The rain has stopped for now but I don’t think that we will see much improvement later on. This is our final day here for the season and I was really hoping for nicer weather At least the weather seems dryer at home. I have to say that our week up her has been a bit of a bust,…
Since we arrived here last Friday, it has rained almost everyday. It hasn’t been all day rains, just enough to keep the sand wet so that we are constantly tracking it into our trailer. The weather has been warm until now. With this latest cold front, we now will have temps struggling into the 50s for our highs. Today’s high should reach the mid 60s, but after today, it will be much cooler. I know that we can’t expect perfect…
Yesterday was a lovely day here in Topinabee, but heavy rain moved in shortly after 7 pm putting a damper on our evening campfire. I don’t have a rain gauge up here but I know that we must have gotten about half an inch. Little by little, our fellow campers are leaving each day and it is pretty quiet around here. My in-laws, who own the cabins on Lake Huron, will be leaving for Florida next week and it is…
We had a rather heavy rain storm overnight but it didn’t last long, just hard enough to get our wood wet. We should see temps in the low 70s this afternoon before the cold front moves in; bringing possible severe weather to lower Michigan. Thankfully, that doesn’t include where we are now. Our skies are partly cloudy right now and it feels quite mild outdoors, even though it is only is the 60s. It should remain this way most of…
Our trip up here yesterday was a combination of warm, wet, and windy. In fact, winds reached near 60 mph at times and half of Cheboygan was without power last night. Thankfully, we weren’t but there is at least one fallen tree here in the campground. I could hear chain saws first thing this morning Temperatures were warm until about 2 PM when the cold front finally moved through. My son hasn’t reported any damage at home so that’s a…
