We have yet another very warm, dry day. Again, no rain in our forecast but the clouds look like some rain could develop. I’m happy for this dry period. Maybe the grass will quit growing and some of these mosquitoes will go away. They seem to be worse when the lawn gets long. I’m noticing that I’m not getting many birds at my feeders lately. I haven’t seen a hummingbird now for about five days, but I’ll keep the feeder…
Our day has been sunny, but now clouds are coming in from the south. We have no rain in the forecast and the radar is clear. Temps are pleasant with a light breeze. Overall, it’s a beautiful day. This is supposed to be a dry week for us, but we know how quickly that can change. Our 3:15 PM temperature is 82°F (28°C), the humidity is 42%, and winds are from the WSW at 1-5 mph. Skies are becoming mostly…
We can expect the temperatures to be on the rise over the next few days and it will feel like summer once again. We are starting to see a little color in the trees and bushes, and the hours of daylight are noticeably less. Soon it will be Halloween, then Thanksgiving and Christmas. This year is passing by much too quickly. Our 10 AM temperature is 65°F (18°C), the humidity is 78%, and skies are cloudy. Winds are…
What started out sunny, has now become cloudy and chilly. It felt nice when the sun was shining, but now a jacket or sweater is needed if one is going to be outdoors. There wasn’t any rain in our forecast but I’m seeing some showers on radar in the southern portions of the state. Our sky looks like it could drop a few rain drops, but nothing so far. They have added the possibility of rain in our forecast although…
The sun is expected to show up sometime today, but no sign of it yet. We didn’t get any rain yesterday as it all remained well to our south. This upcoming week is supposed to be warmer and dry. We’ll see how that works out. Right now, temps are pretty chilly and highs aren’t expected to make it out of the 60s today. Our 10:30 AM temp is 57°F (14°C), the humidity is 87%, and skies are overcast. Winds are…
Today was supposed to be the rainy day of our weekend, but now it is a bit doubtful whether we will see any rain. The radar is clear except for rain around the Chicago area, and that seems to be stationary at this time. Our morning was cloudy, but now we are seeing breaks in the clouds and rain chances are less than what was predicted yesterday. That’s okay. The mosquitoes have enough moisture to sustain them for…
We saw the sun for a short time this morning, but that has come to an end. At least, temperatures will be closer to where they should be today. Rain is in the forecast for tonight and tomorrow along with some thunder. A warmup is supposed to happen over the next few weeks. I hope it does. I love warm autumn weather. Our 2:15 PM temperature is 71°F (22°C), the humidity is 58%, and skies are overcast. Winds are from…
We have plenty of sun today and temperatures should make it into the low 70s. No rain is in the forecast, so it will be a great day to get outdoors and do anything. We should see a warmup by the end of next week, and the extended forecast is calling for above normal temperatures for the month’s end. I love it. This is my favorite time of year. Our 1:15 PM temperature is 69°F (21°C), the humidity is 54%,…
Temperatures fell into the 40s overnight and that was one of our coldest nights so far this season. There is a very heavy dew this morning but we are expecting clearing as the day goes on. In fact, I’m seeing the sun trying to make an appearance through the fog. Temps should be on the rise and closer to where they should be on this date. We are expecting some pretty nice weather over the next few days. Our 9:30…
Yesterday brought us a mix of sun and clouds with a few sprinkles mixed in. I don’t think we will have any sprinkles today, but temps are a bit colder and the sun will be intermittent. Our high will remain below average but we should see a little warmup by the weekend and into next week. At least, that’s what the forecast is saying right now. Our 11:15 AM temperature is 59°F (15°C), the humidity is 77%, and skies are…
