We had a cold east wind blowing all day Thursday and a mix of rain and sleet fell late Thursday night. Some reported freezing rain but I didn’t see any evidence of that here. I could hear sleet hitting my windows for a short time, but then it turned back to all rain. There was 0.07″ in my gauge this morning and radar is showing most of the mess to be past us now. It should be a fairly decent…
Today should be dry until tonight, but we won’t see much sun and temperatures are below normal once again. At least the winds have calmed down. We have some much warmer air heading our way for Saturday and Sunday so we have that to look forward to. I need to get out and clean my flower beds, getting all the dead stuff out. I haven’t checked any of my spring flowers yet but I’m sure that they are starting to…
Our upcoming days appear to be wonderful with temperatures well above normal and not too much rain. We can’t ask for much better than that in April. I’m expecting to start seeing tractors and farm equipment at any time since the fields are drying out nicely and almost ready to get fit to plant. Today will still be a bit cool but highs in the 60s are expected for the weekend. Lovely! Our 12:15 PM temperature is 46°F (8°C), the…
NOAA has released it’s prediction for this month’s weather. Most of the country is expected to have above normal temperatures which is a complete swing from April of 2018. So the winter haters can rejoice. I think we all get a bit tired of winter by this time of year, and any snowfall . . . . even flurries, doesn’t set well with most people. Yesterday was very chilly, but today’s high should reach normal levels. By next weekend, we…
We had rain most of yesterday, but by late afternoon, it was changing to snow. We now have a quarter of an inch on the ground and 0.36″ of total precip for the day. Yes, it looks like winter once again. On the positive side, highs tomorrow are expected to reach the upper 40s so this snow should be short lived. I’m also noticing that the grass is starting to green up and the birds have been very vocal. It’s…
So far, our weather has been quite normal for this time of year. Highs have been a bit above normal and no one is complaining about that. We are returning to winter this weekend however. We aren’t expecting a lot of snow, maybe up to an inch, but it is not welcome this late in March. Rain began overnight and there was 0.45″ in my gauge this morning. Light rain has continued since then and this should be the order…
We should see highs near 60°F today and not much rain in the forecast. There is a little sun shining through right now and it looks to be quite a nice day. Our normal weather is becoming more of a constant although snow is in the forecast for this weekend. Hopefully, this will be the last time. Our 9:30 AM temp is 50°F (10°C), the humidity is 68% and skies are mostly cloudy. Winds are from the SW at 12…
At least we have clear skies but it isn’t nearly as warm outside as it looks. You can really feel the heat from the sun now streaming though the windows and I’ve noticed that the furnace does run as much on sunny days. I guess that we can’t really expect much more than that in late March. It’s hard to believe that this month is almost over. Our 1 PM temperature is 38°F (3°C), the humidity is 36%, and winds…
Why does it always have to rain when we get a nice, warm day? At least it’s suppose to hold off until later this afternoon or tonight. We’re waiting for a dry period to get the truck washed but it just isn’t happening. It looks like we will have some real spring temperatures the latter part of this upcoming week with highs nearing 60°F. I just hope that it doesn’t bring more tornadoes like the last time we hit 60°F. …
This morning is starting out with plenty of sun but very chilly. Highs should reach to near normal, and with the sun and light winds, it should be a great day to be outdoors. Not sure yet if I’ll take advantage of it yet. I’ll see what happens later. Our 9:45 AM temperature is 29°F (-2°), the humidity is 71%, and skies are clear. The pressure is 30.29 in (1025.7 mb) and rising. Winds are from the NW at 3…
