Maybe we should be happy that we aren’t getting severe weather but this much rain causes flooding which can be as bad. Many roads in the Detroit area are flooded as they got almost 2 inches overnight. We received a little over half an inch here. Radar is showing that we’re right on the edge of the showers and I’m hoping that it stays that way since I have some running around to do this morning. On the positive side,…
We received a little under half an inch of rain yesterday and we have much more heading out way. Our temperatures are about 10 degrees lower than where they should be for this date and we aren’t expecting any reprieve until the weekend. Until then, rain is in he forecast along with temperatures below the average. Hopefully, this will be the last cold front. Our 11:45 AM temp is 45°F (7°C), the humidity is 79%, and winds are from the…
We have rain in our forecast for everyday this week. Saturday’s snow event turned into a fizzle. They predicted 3-4 inches for my area and it all came as rain, and not much at that. We were all quite happy. Snow isn’t really unusual for this late in April but we hate when it snows on our flowers. Radar is showing a large area of rain knocking on our door but nothing as yet. I guess we won’t be doing…
Looking outdoors this morning, no one would suspect that we have a snowstorm on the way for tonight. The sun is out and flowers are blooming. There is a brisk wind blowing, however, giving us a warning of what is coming. What began as possible light snow amounts has now become 3-4 inches possible for my area. Oh well, it isn’t the first time that the spring flowers have been peaking out through snow cover. Good thing that they are…
We had rain closing in on us from the southeast and the northwest late yesterday, but none of it reached my area. I see that the Detroit area received some pretty heavy amounts on the CoCoRahs reports this morning. We were lucky because our ground is drenched and many fields still have water standing from these past rains that we’ve had. While the past few days have been very nice, there is yet another cold front moving in on us…
It seems that we just can’t get away from these cold temperatures. We get a few “teaser” days, then back to March weather. I guess that we better enjoy today and tomorrow because the remainder of the week will see highs only in the 40s and 50s. At least we aren’t getting snow. Our 9 AM temperature is 41°F (5°C), the humidity is 77% and winds are from the north at 5 mph. Skies are clear and we had frost…
This last two days were wonderful with plenty of sun and very warm temps. Today will be more normal with highs only in the mid 60s. We had a little rain overnight which left 0.05″ in my gauge. The forecast still calls for rain this morning but radar is showing most of it past us, and clearing skies are a possibility for this afternoon. Our 9 AM temperature is 62°F (17°C), the humidity is 65% and skies are overcast. Winds…
I don’t have all of my screen on the windows yet and I think I’ll regret it today. The latest forecast is calling for highs in the mid to upper 70s. Yesterday was a gorgeous day with our high reaching 73° on my thermometer. Today will be about the same but more rain moving in tonight. Our 8:45 AM temperature is 56°F (13°C), the humidity is 65%, and skies are partly cloudy. Winds are from the south at 6 mph…
Weather-wise, it couldn’t be nicer. Our highs will be near 70° and winds will be light. What an improvement this is from the past four days. It seemed like it would never stop raining. Today will be a cook-out day. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 63°F (17°C), the humidity is 44%, and winds are from the southwest at 6 mph. Visibility is 10 miles and the dew point is 40°F (4°C). The pressure is 30.04 in and steady. Skies are…
Today will be chilly with still a chance for rain, but tomorrow will be a new day. It sounds like it may be a perfect Easter Sunday with highs in the 60s and plenty of sun. We will be cooking outdoors for sure. We are all hoping that this will be the end to these below-normal temperatures which have been plaguing us lately. I see that some gardens in the city have their spring flowers in full bloom while mine…
