Although skies became very dark, and a severe thunderstorm warning was issued for us, it never happened.  Unfortunately, other’s weren’t as lucky.  Ludington reported baseball size hail and another area near Bay City reported ping pong size hail.  There was a lot of wind damage in the Bay City area which the weather service said was caused by a micro burst.  There were a few tornado warnings issued throughout the state, but none formed.   That’s always a good thing.  Today is cool and breezy with plenty of sun.  Tomorrow we’ll be heading to the campground for our last time and will have to say goodby to our neighbors and friends.  There is a lot to pack up and my son will be coming also to help.  We’ve been camping for 50 years and it will seems strange not doing it anymore.

Our 3 PM temperature is 75°F (24°C), the humidity is 45% and winds are from the west at 17  mph, gusting to 26 mph.  The dew point is 51°F (11°C) and the pressure is 29.65 in (1004.1 mb) and falling.  Skies are partly cloudy and visibility is 10 miles.  Yesterday’s high was 85°F (29°C) and the overnight low was 58°F (14°C).  Average temps for this date are 78°F / 54°F.  Sunrise was at 7:08 AM and sunset will be at 7:59 PM.
