My heart breaks for the people stranded in the mountains of North Carolina, and I think it is criminal that the government seems to have written them off. There’s another rain system in the Gulf which is threatening to bring more rain to Florida, something they don’t need, but there it is. And the government is saying that FEMA is out of money and can’t help them. We definitely need a change in leadership in this country. I just hope…
Today will be the warmest day that we will have for awhile. We should see highs in the mid 70s, but then the weather will turn to where it really should be for this time of year. Our extended summer was certainly enjoyable, but we knew that it couldn’t last forever. At least we don’t have much rain in the forecast although we could use some. It has been very dry for autumn. Our 11 AM temperature is 64°F (18°C),…
It is a gorgeous day here in Michigan. Temperatures are right where they should be for this time of year, and not much wind. It’s just a great day to get out and do anything. Most of the rain missed us yesterday and all we got was a few sprinkles. Our next chance of rain is Sunday. Our 4:15 PM temperature is 67°F (19°C), the humidity is 39%, and winds are from the south at 4-10 mph. Skies are perfectly…
We lost our sun early, and now clouds have taken over. Radar is showing some narrow rain bands which may bring us a few sprinkles. We aren’t expecting a lot of rain today, just enough to get things a little wet. Our 12 noon temperature is 71°F (22°C), the humidity is 84%, and skies are overcast. Winds are from the SW at 4-6 mph, and the pressure is 29.90 in (1012.5 mb) and steady. The dew point is 64°F (18°C)…
Yesterday was cloudy all day, then the sky started clearing a little just before sunset. This morning was cloudy, and there were signs that we had a little rain overnight. Now it looks like we may get some sun, and temperatures should warm up quite a bit. No rain is expected the rest of the day. Our 2 PM temperature is 72°F, the humidity is 74%, and winds are from the east at 1-3 mph. The pressure is 29.97 in…
Our morning began with a little rain which ended by 9 AM. Now we have clouds but should see a little sun later on. The rain we got was the remnants of Hurricane Helene, that has caused a lot of devastation, not only in Florida, but Tennessee and North Carolina as well. Many small towns were totally wiped out by flood water, and many people are still trapped. So far there hasn’t been much response from the government as far…
We have some remnants of Hurricane Helene over us, but it is quite tame. We have very little rain, and not much wind. What rain we do get won’t last long, but it will remain cloudy through most of tomorrow. It is looking like most of next week will be dry with temps where they should be for this time of the year. Our 2:15 PM temperature is 73°F, the humidity is 73%, and winds are from the NE at…
I’ve been watching the hurricane coverage on TV. I feel so sorry for those who seem to always be affected by these storms. The past 3 or 4 seem to have aimed for the northwest areas of Florida, and some of the victims have just rebuilt from previous storms, and now have to start over again. So many Michiganders go to Florida for the winter months, and I really have to wonder if it is worth it going through this…
After a cloudy, damp Wednesday, today is looking to be very nice. The sun is out, most of the clouds are gone, and we should see highs in the mid 70s. At this time, it doesn’t look like Hurricane Helene will be affecting us, and will be moving off to the east before coming this far north. Our next chance for rain is this weekend, so that may be from remnants of this storm. Our 11:45 AM temperature is 67°F,…
As Florida is preparing for the impact of yet another hurricane, we in Michigan are looking forward to another week of great weather. Yesterday was a bit stormy with even a few tornado warnings down by the state line. But none materialized although I think there were a few in Ohio and Indiana. Most of Florida is under a emergency declaration although the site of impact for the storm seems to be along the Gulf Coast somewhere. Nothing is for…
