We have yet another beautiful day to enjoy. Highs will only make it into the 70s although it is quite breezy. Extended forecasts for the fist half of June are calling for temperatures a little below average, so that sounds perfect to me. I love having the windows open in summer in stead of the AC, so this is a treat. Our 1:15 PM temperature is 76°F, the humidity is 29%, and winds are from the west at 4-15 mph. …
Today is perfection as far as I’m concerned. The sky is clear, temperatures are comfortable, and breezes are light. We couldn’t ask for a nicer day. Yesterday was mostly cloudy and we did have a few drops of rain. We went shopping in Owosso and it poured while we were in the store, but the roads were barely wet here at home. I’m still in the process are planting flowers. It’s slow but sure process this year. I have some…
Today will be the hottest day that we have had so far this year. I’m not sure if any records will be broken, but I know that it will be much to hot for me. I don’t plan on being outdoors much, in spite of it looking gorgeous out there. My dog, on the other hand, thinks it’s wonderful and has been asking to go out about every half hour. We have more cooler air descending on us from the…
Today’s weather will feel more like July than the end of May, but who’s complaining? For those planning any time in or on the water, it will be ideal. It is a bit breezy but that will make it feel a little cooler. Highs are expected to reach the upper 80s, so a nice breeze will feel great. There is still no rain in the forecast until Tuesday night and that’s fine. We can use a dry spell. Our 1…
We have gorgeous weather for our holiday weekend with summer-like temperatures. Today should reach the low 80s and highs near 90°F tomorrow. There is no rain mentioned in the forecast until Wednesday, so that will give the lawn a good chance to dry out. Mowing has been a real challenge this spring with all the rain that we have gotten. It’s hard to believe that it is the end of May already. I’m sure that this summer will go by…
Today feels like a day in July with the air so full of moisture. We have had stop-and-go rain since this morning, although showers are becoming more numerous as the afternoon wears on. We had showers overnight which gave us over quarter of an inch of rain. I’m not sure how much more we’ll get today. It is moving in on us right out of the south, and there still seem to be quite a bit still on the radar. …
We have mostly clear skies, light breezes and comfortable temperatures. It’s the perfect day for doing some gardening. I went out and bought more perennials today, as I’m trying to change all my gardens to them so I don’t have to keep replanting every year. I’m getting too old for that and am looking for the easy way out. Friends gave me some peonies last year, and they looked terrible all summer after I planted them. I wasn’t sure that…
Another cold front has moved through the state, and once again, our temperatures are below average. Many of us are wondering if this will be ongoing through the summer. It’s time to warm up and stay there, but Mother Nature has other ideas. Otherwise, it’s not a bad day. Highs won’t get much warmer than they are right now but I can’t complain. I’d rather have it be like this than in the 90s. We are seeing quite a bit…
It seems like our weather just cannot warm up and stay there. We have constant roller-coaster temperatures which are causing too much rain as well as severe storms. Gaylord, MI was hit by an F3 tornado on Friday, and that is a rarity for northern Michigan. Tornadoes aren’t really uncommon there, but one that strong certainly is. We are very familiar with the area that was hit. When we camped in Indian River, Gaylord was our go-to town for any…
This morning is beginning with plenty of sun, breezy, and very warm. This is the prelude for tomorrow’s weather. Actually, most of the storms are expected tomorrow night which I’m not happy about, especially with tornadoes a possibility. But we’ll see what happens. States to our west have really been hammered the past few days and now it’s our turn. Most of the time, severe weather will remain to our south, but we aren’t always that lucky. Today will be…
