It is looking like a gorgeous day out there. Temperatures will be warmer than what we have had, but the wind will still be a problem. Most, if not all, of our snow is gone, but there are still a few stubborn small patches of ice, the remnants of our ice storm a few weeks ago. They should definitely see their demise this week with highs expected in the 50s on most days. Our 11 AM temperature is 39°F (4°C),…
Today will still be a bit chilly, but temperatures will continue to rise as the week goes on. We should see highs in the 50s most of the week, and hopefully, that will rid us of the rest of this ice. There are still patches of it in shady spots, but it has dwindled significantly. We will still have strong winds today and that will make it feel quite a bit colder than what the thermometer shows, but at least…
Today really feels like winter. We are having off and on snow squalls which only last a few minutes, but are heavy enough to affect visibility for those out driving. We aren’t going to see much warming today and we have about half an inch of snow cover. The biggest issue is the wind. Our wind chill is in the single digits and temps won’t even come close to the freezing mark. Right now, the sky has some breaks in…
We don’t have a very nice St. Paddy’s day here in Michigan. Temperatures have been dropping since early this morning, and we are seeing light snow flurries. The winds are brutal and it is not a nice day to be outdoors, for sure. On the positive side, this cold spell will only last a few days, then a nice warmup once again. We all know how bipolar Mother Nature is, so we just have to grin and bear it. At…
We are expecting a good amount of rain for later today, tonight, and part of tomorrow. I’m hoping that it will be warm enough to finally melt the large patch of ice that we have in our front yard. Some has melted when the sun hits it, but that’s not too often. Then the weather will turn cold again and snow is in the forecast for this weekend. This is supposed to be spring and it seemed more like spring…
It warmed up enough yesterday to melt most of our snow. We still have a few icy patches where the sun doesn’t shine, but the snow is gone. We are expecting highs in the 50s the next few days and rain. I’m hoping that it will finally melt these icy spots. Our sky is clear and the humidity is very low, so it’ll be a great day for getting outdoors for a walk or whatever. Our 12:45 PM temperature is…
We had light snow showers all day on Monday but not much in accumulations. Much of it melted but I estimate that we have about 1-2 inches of snow cover at this time. Today will be a bit brighter and hopefully, we’ll lose much of the snow. This is the time of year when we are supposed to see rising temps, and if anything, we’re getting our February weather now. I knew this was going to happen. The weather always…
I wasn’t expecting this much snow overnight, but regardless, here it is. We had 1.3 inches at 8:30 this morning, and I know we’ve gotten another inch since then. Light snow continues at this time. We are suppose to have temps back in the 40s by the end of this week, so I know that this won’t last long. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 31°F (-1°C), the humidity is 85%, and skies are cloudy with light snow. Winds are from…
We woke to another half inch of snow this morning, but now most has melted. I don’t think that we’ll see temps much over the freezing mark today, so our ice pack remains. I’ve referred to it as our “glacier” because it doesn’t seem to be going anywhere. We need a day where the temp reaches 70 degrees . . . . . just one. I don’t think that it will be happening anytime soon, however. Our 4:15 PM temperature…
To look outdoors today, no one would know that we had 3 inches a few days ago. All of that snow is now gone and the sun is working on the partial ice cover that we still have from our past ice storm. It isn’t quite warm enough to totally get rid of it, but it is melting little by little. It’s actually quite nice outdoors although there is a bit of a breeze, making it feel chilly. I’m not…
