After a comfortable Sunday, our temperatures are once again too hot. We could see a high of 90F this afternoon, and it already feels like an oven. Our weather this year has been crazy with up-and-down temperatures, air quality alerts, and sporadic storms on occasion that miss us most of the time. Regardless, today will be okay if you like excessive heat. I don’t. Our 2 PM temperature is 84°F (29°C), the humidity is 41%, and winds are from the…
After a fairly wet Saturday, today has turned into a winner. Highs are only expected to reach the mid to upper 70s, and the humidity is comfortable. Skies are mostly clear and breezes are light. It always seems good to have the windows open and air out the house. Our 2:15 PM temperature is 77°F (25°C), the humidity is 55%, and winds are from the NNE at 2-6 mph and visibility is 14 miles. The dew point is 53°F (12°C)…
We have been getting light rain since I got up this morning and it will probably continue most of the day. Temperatures probably won’t rise out of the 70s although most of our day will probably be wet. Yesterday was gorgeous. Our high only reached 80°F (27°C) and there was just enough breeze to be comfortable. It was a great day to spend outdoors. Our 11 AM temperature is 70°F (21°C), the humidity is 86%, and skies are overcast with…
We are expecting highs today in the low 90s with the possibility of a thunderstorm developing. We sure could use the rain and it would also help with the heat. I’m not fond of weather this hot, so I’m happy that it isn’t supposed to last long. Temps should be closer to normal after today. Yesterday was pleasant but too warm to spend much of it outdoors. The next few days will be better. Our 1PM temperature is 90°F (32°C),…
Happy Independence Day to everyone! I hope that everyone is enjoying great weather and having a wonderful time with friends and family. As for me, I have a case of bronchitis which has been hanging on now for a week. It seems to be getting better but not fast enough. Highs today will reach into the low 90s so maybe I should go out and sit in the heat for awhile. Today we have plenty of sun and our air…
After some welcomed rain on Sunday, our Monday is shaping up to be quite nice. It is a typical July day in Michigan with very warm temps and high humidity. We received half an inch of rain yesterday and there is a slight chance for some today, but I think it’s over. The radar isn’t showing anything developing and heading our way. After a cloudy morning, the sun is now appearing and the skies are clearing. Our 1:30 PM temperature…
Although the sky looks threatening, and we have had a few sprinkles, we have had no rain worth mentioning. There was only 0.05″ in my rain gauge this morning. Storms keep popping up on our radar but they always seem to miss us. Our 1:15 PM temperature is 77°F (25°C), the humidity is 78% and skies are overcast. Winds are from the E at 1-3 mph, and the dew point is 66°F (19°C). The pressure is 29.83 in (1010.2 mb)…
Our day started out with cloudy skies, and very warm and humid. It is quite breezy and it feels like thunderstorm weather. So far, there are some popping up on radar but not in my area. I’m hoping that one or two come our way. Our 1:45 PM temperature is 82°F (28°C), our humidity is 63%, and winds are from the SSW at 4-7 mph. Skies are cloudy and the pressure is 29.92 in (1013.2 mb) and steady. The dew…
It looks like a lovely day out there, but we can still see a lot of smoke in the air and we are being warned to not go outdoors without a good mask. The Air Quality Index is still at an unhealthy level and it is suppose to improve this weekend. We had a thunderstorm just miss us last night, as it moved to our north. We did get a few sprinkles from it but not enough to matter. The…
We had a little thundershower early this morning which dropped 0.19″ in my gauge. The smoke seems even worse today than yesterday, but we’re suppose to be rid of it by the weekend. This is certainly a crappy way to spend the summer. We wait a long time for nice weather, then we get this. What’s even worse is that I have what appears to be a bad cold. I usually don’t get colds, and I’m wondering if it isn’t…
