We have heat and plenty of sun, but there is still smoke in the air from the wild fires. We were supposed to have a cool-down this week but now it looks like it isn’t going to happen, or at least not until late next week. We had cloudy skies and a few afternoon sprinkles yesterday, but today should be dry. Our 3 PM temperature is 82°F, the humidity is 54%, and winds are from the NE at 0-6 mph. …
When you think of an August day in Michigan, today would be that day. Temperatures will reach the low 80s and the humidity will be quite high. Winds will be light and there is a slim chance for a thunderstorm. This morning was very foggy and visibility was less that one mile. Now it is trying to clear up. We have light cloudiness that the sun is trying to shine through. Our 12:45 PM temperature is 79°F, the humidity is…
Our state was very lucky yesterday that the severe weather remained south of us. We continue to have a chance for storms today, with the heat and humidity what it is. Thankfully, we have a significant cool-down coming next week, with highs most days remaining in the 70s and lows at night in the 50s. That’s my kind of weather. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 82°F, the humidity is 55%, and skies are mostly cloudy with hazy sun. Winds are…
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…

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…
