We are starting our day with a tornado watch and very mild temperatures.  At this time, most of the storms are moving well to our west, but I know that we’ll get our share later.  We already had one loud clap of thunder and a downpour which just lasted a about a minute.   I spent all day yesterday in Detroit.  My son had to have emergency surgery but he’s doing find.  I’m glad that I don’t have to go anywhere today.

Right now (9AM), we have 58°F, the humidity is 92%, and skies are overcast with light rain.  The dew point is 59°F and winds are from the south at 1-8 mph.  We are  under a tornado watch until 4 PM.  Visibility is 7 miles. Our high yesterday was 52°F and that was pretty much our overnight low, as temperatures were on the rise all night.  The pressure is 29.62 in and falling.  Sunrise was at 7:13 AM and sunset will be at 8:07 PM.
