Mid Michigan Weather

We have near record temperatures today and tomorrow, but another cold front will move in, giving us the possibility of strong thunderstorms tonight and early tomorrow.  I’ve noticed many of the farmers are already getting their fields fit for planting, and this has been a good week for it with no rain.  It is unusual, however, for February.  Our temperatures will drop significantly after the storms, but another warm-up will come for the weekend.  I think I have only worn…

Today is starting with sun, but it isn’t expected to last.  We will see highs near 50F and that’s a relief from yesterday.  There is no rain in our forecast until late Tuesday, and we could see a record high temp on that day.  Unfortunately, we could also see severe weather  That’s never a good thing but that’s what happens when we get this warm, this early. Our 10:45 AM temperature is 38°F (3°C), the humidity is 62%, and skies…

It looks like a very pretty day, but it is too cold for my liking.  Temps aren’t even expected to reach the freezing mark, but at least the sun gives the illusion of being warmer.  This cold will be short-lived with highs in the 50s and possible 60s expected for next week.  These few warm days really spoil us, and it’s difficult to remember that it is still February.  We aren’t even getting any rain which is unusual for winter…

Our warm weather is leaving us for a few days but expected to return soon.  This winter has been weird weather-wise but I’m not complaining.  It’s been very unfortunate for those who love winter sports.  Even our  upper peninsula hardly has any snow which is really strange for February.  Temperatures will be closer to where they should be through the weekend, then back into the 50s and even 60s early next week.  What can I say??? Our 10:30 AM temperature…

We have had mostly cloudy skies this morning, but now we have partly cloudy skies and haze.  After a little research, I discovered that the haze is from wildfires in Oklahoma.  We had a record temp of 62°F yesterday.  It actually tied the record from back in 1930.  It has been a strange winter and I’m hoping that we won’t pay for it in April when the flowers, bushes, and trees start coming out of dormancy.  That’s often what happens….

It really feels like spring out there today.  It is already much warmer than what was predicted, and we could set a new record today.  The morning was cloudy, but now there are quite a few breaks in the clouds and we have a bit of sunshine.  Our rain chances for today have fallen significantly so it’s a great day to get outdoors and do something. Our 2:15 PM temperature is 59°F (15°C), the humidity is 46%, and skies are…

  Temperatures will reach the upper 40s today and some areas could reach 50°F.  There are still little patches of snow hanging around and I expect that to be gone by tonight.  This weather is expected to last for another few days yet, then an Alberta clipper will pay us a visit, and possibly some snow.  But we can enjoy this while it lasts. Our 2:15 PM temperature is 47°F (8°C), the humidity is 49%, and winds are from the…

Today has been quite pleasant with plenty of sun, mild breezes, and temperatures in the 40s.  This will be a warmer than average week although we could see some rain by the weekend.  We only have a few patches of snow left and none in the forecast at this time. Our 5 PM temperature is 40°F (4°C), the humidity is 54%, and the dew point is 22°F (-6°C).  The pressure is 30.07 in (1018.3 mb) and falling.  Yesterday’s high was…

Yesterday turned out to be mostly sunny by afternoon.  Unfortunately, the wind made it very uncomfortable to be outdoors.  The wind really picked up overnight and some gusts reached close to 30 mph.  Today is still windy but not quite as bad.  Temperatures will only reach the mid 30s today, then a significant warmup begins tomorrow and through most of next week. Our 2 PM temperature is 35°F (2°C), the humidity is 66%, and skies are cloudy.  Winds are from…

Today will really feel like winter with highs only expected to reach the mid 20s.  We received a little snow overnight but not enough to measure.  We continue to have about an inch of snow cover at this time, and that will be gone in a few days.  Another warmup is heading our way with highs reaching into the 50s this up coming week.  Spring is just around the corner. Our 10:45 AM temperature is 21°F (-6°C), the humidity is…
