Today will be very warm with highs expected to reach the mid 80s We had scattered thunderstorms develop across the state late yesterday, and there was a lot of thunder, but not much rain . . . . . at least not here where I am. There is no more rain in the forecast until late Monday, and it’s just a slight chance. Tuesday could be a stormy one for us, and we are already being warned. What’s interesting is…
Our morning began with clear skies, but clouds are now beginning to look stormy although no rain is on the radar as yet. No severe weather is expected for us today. A little rain would be nice for the farmers who have been busy planting. Temperatures will be quite warm today with hot weather expected next week. Ryan Hall, YouTube weather analyst, is predicting a stormy end to May for much of the country. That has already been happening for…
Today is about as perfect as you can get: light winds, comfortable temperatures, and plenty of sun. There is some rain on the way but not until tonight. This is just a good day to spend outdoors. Our 2:45 PM temperature is 76°F (24°C), the humidity is 31%, and winds are from the SSE at 2-5 mph. The pressure is 29.92 in (1013.2 mb) and steady, and the dew point is 37°F (3°C). Visibility is 12 miles. Yesterday’s high was…
It’s a beautiful day in Mid Michigan with clear skies, mild temperatures, and a nice breeze. Highs were suppose to be in the upper 60s, but we’ve managed to make it to the 70° mark. Yesterday was chilly but dry. We managed to get all 2.5 acres mowed, so hopefully rain will hold off for awhile so it quits growing. Our 4:30 PM temperature is 70°F, the humidity is 49%, and winds are from the N at 4-10 mph. The…
After temperatures reaching into the low 80s yesterday, today is much cooler and no sun so far. We had a weather statement yesterday afternoon saying that a strong thunderstorm was heading our way, with pea sized hail and 40 mph winds. All we got was some thunder and a few drops of rain. I think most of it went to our north, and diminished a bit as it traveled east. Today is cloudy and looks like rain but nothing so…
Our morning began with clear skies and a bit breezy. We did get some rain overnight and my weather station is showing some lightning strikes, although I slept through it. We could get more storms today but nothing severe is expected. Our sky is still mostly clear and temperatures have risen to 80°F. We have some cumulus clouds appearing in the west so I wouldn’t be surprised to see a few storms pop up. Our 2 PM humidity is 41%…
The weather couldn’t be any nicer. Skies are almost clear with light breezes, and temperatures will be comfortable. My kids were all home and we went to church, then out for brunch around noon. Just going to take it easy the remaining day. Our 3 PM temperature is 71°F, the humidity is 40%, and winds are from the SW at 6-10 mph. Skies are mostly clear with just a few thin clouds. The dew point is 38% and the pressure…
Last night’s northern lights have been the talk this morning. Some areas saw them better than others, but they filled most of the sky. There wasn’t much color to what we saw, but they showed up much better on my son’s photos than what we saw with the naked eye. Clouds moved in and we did have overnight rain. There was 0.18 in in my gauge this morning. Our 12:15 temperature is 50°F, the humidity is 91%, and winds are…
There is rain approaching from the south, so looks like we may get a little wet today. We could actually use about a month with no rain. Our back property hasn’t dried out in almost a year. It makes mowing a big problem. Our 1:15 PM temperature is 60°F, the humidity is 65%, and winds are from the east at 4-10 mph. The pressure is 29.82 in and steady. The dew point is 41°F and visibility is 14 miles. Yesterday’s…
I heard that there were seven tornadoes late yesterday which struck the southwest corner of our state. There was only supposed to be a very slight chance of severe weather, and even a lesser chance for tornadoes. Portage, MI got the worst of it, but there was damage in other areas as well. The watches and warnings didn’t come up as far as my county but Lansing was included. I always enjoy a good thunderstorm, but not when they bring…
