Another Record Temp . . . .

Another Record Temp . . . .

Yesterday was another record breaker, but now temperatures will decline back to more normal levels.  Today is still expected to reach into the 70s, but will be much cooler for the weekend.  We have had a few sprinkles of rain so far but radar shows more on the way, but nothing heavy.  Wind will still be the issue today. Our 2 PM temperature is 68°F (20°C), the humidity is 84%, and skies are overcast.  Winds are from the S at…

Very Warm And Blustery . . .

Very Warm And Blustery . . .

In spite of very warm temperatures, it isn’t pleasant to be outdoors because of the strong winds.  Yesterday broke the record for high temperatures, and I think it will happen again today.  This clashing of warm and cold temperatures will bring some nasty weather to the central regions of the country.  I’m hoping that it doesn’t work it’s way to us.  At this time, this system is expected to weaken as it moves our way. Our 1:15 PM temperature is…

Warm And Breezy . . . .

Warm And Breezy . . . .

Today could be a record breaker.  Highs could reach the upper 70s which would break the previous record.  Our morning began with a little thunder and 0.15″ of rain.  We really need the rain and I just wish it would have been more.  We do have another chance for Wednesday night into Thursday so hopefully, it will be more than what we got last night. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 72°F (22°C), the humidity is 70%, and skies are partly…

Should Be Another Pleasant Day . . . .

Should Be Another Pleasant Day . . . .

This morning had some light frost and calm winds.  Now some clouds have moved in and it is breezy.  We could see rain tonight, and even a thunderstorm.  Rain chances will continue through tomorrow morning.  Record high temperatures are a possibility. Our 12:45 PM temperature is 58°F (14°C), the humidity is 44%, and winds are from the S at 4-7 mph.  The pressure is 29.97 in (1014.9 mb) and falling, and the dew point is 32°F (0°C).  Yesterday’s high was…

Chilly, Windy But Sunny . . . .

Chilly, Windy But Sunny . . . .

Today began with a heavy frost and clear skies.  Now we have partly cloudy skies and a brisk wind.  It feels like a typical fall day in Michigan.  We are expecting another round of 70 degree weather this week before temperatures dip back to the normal range.  YouTube weather analyst, Ryan Hall, warns that with these changes could come a round of severe weather.  The exact areas affected are not certain as yet, so we’ll have to keep an eye…

Light Rain to Start Our Day . . .

Light Rain to Start Our Day . . .

This morning began with light rain which is expected to end soon.  I doubt that we’ll see much sun today, but it shouldn’t be too bad of a day weather wise.  Temperatures will be close to where they should be for this time of year and the upcoming weekend should be dry. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 51°F (11°C), the humidity is 91%, and winds are from the SW at 2-7 mph.  The wind chill is 48°F (9°C) and the…

Another Nice Day . . . .

Another Nice Day . . . .

We are blessed with yet another fine autumn day.  Temperatures will be mild and there should be a lot of sun.  I can’t remember an autumn that has given us so many mild, dry days and I love it.  This is my favorite time of year anyway.    The temperature dipped down to the freezing mark last night, and we had a heavy frost.  Our trees are just about bare now, although those that still have leaves are more brown than…

Cooler But Still Pleasant . . . .

Cooler But Still Pleasant . . . .

After a sunny, very warm yesterday, clouds moved in late and a few drops of rain fell.  We only got  0:03″, hardly enough to matter, and just enough to get the deck wet.  This morning is still mostly cloudy and the chance for rain remains.  The rest of this week will be more seasonable but the seventies are still in our forecast for early next week. Our 11 AM temp is 61°F, the humidity is 77%, and winds are from…

Our Last Summer-Like Day . . . .

Our Last Summer-Like Day . . . .

We won’t be seeing temps this warm again for a while.  It’s beautiful but much cooler weather is knocking on our door.  There is still very little rain in our forecast and wildfires are a possibility.  Our sky has been clear up until now, but I’m seeing some clouds moving in from the west.  There is a chance for some rain tonight but very slight. Our 3 PM temperature is 75°F (24°C), the humidity is 38%, and skies are partly…

Summer-Like in Mid Michigan

Summer-Like in Mid Michigan

It feels like a summer day out there.  Temps are in the  80s with a warm breeze.  I’d love to have days like this all winter but I know that’s asking too much.  Ryan Hall, a YouTube weather analyst, says that we’ll have a record warm Halloween this year.  That will sure be a change from the past four.  Regardless, I’ll just enjoy what we have today. Our 4 PM temperature is 80°F (27°C), the humidity is 37%, and winds…
