This is our second day of totally cloudless skies. How rare this is for Michigan in February. There is no precip in our forecast until Tuesday night, then another major storm is coming across the country. This is expected to bring the possibility of severe weather on Thursday for the south and Midwest states. At this time, Michigan seems to be on the northern edge but that can always change. All the states south of us are getting more winter…
There isn’t a cloud in the sky, temps should reach the mid 40s today, and no precip expected for the next several days. The only negative thing is the wind. It will be quite strong today, and will make it feel much cooler than we would like. At least we have the sun, and if we can stay out of the wind, it will be a very nice day. All the snow is gone except for a few resilient snowbanks…
All of our snow is gone except for a few spots where we shoveled. Mild temperatures and rain over the past two days took care of most of it. The southern parts of the state saw highs in the 50s yesterday, but we didn’t get nearly that warm. They also had very strong winds with some power outages, and we didn’t get that either. In fact, our winds are stronger today than they were yesterday. We are just now seeing…
We received 0.72 inches of rain so far and there is more on the way. Most of the snow is gone except for where the banks are, and a few low areas. Highs could reach near 50°F today although it has a way to go if it will get that warm. We are under a wind advisory for this afternoon until 7PM, but right now the wind is quite calm. The rain could change to snow by tonight, but we…
With the warm temps over the past 2 days, our snow cover has now dwindled to about 10%. With the rain expected tonight and tomorrow, that will probably take care of the rest of it. It feels like a spring day out there but clouds are are starting to move it. Substantial rainfall is expected over the next 24 hours but temperatures are expected to remain mild into the weekend. This was supposed to be a harsh winter for us; …
Although our temperatures have been above the freezing mark, the snow isn’t melting very fast. We still have about 2 inches of snow pack remaining, and it had a light layer of ice over it this morning. Highs today should make it into the mid 40s, then the winds will pick up and it will be quite blustery this afternoon. There are gale warnings up for Saginaw Bay until 4 pm. I’m glad that I don’t have to go anywhere…
Our morning began with clouds and chilly temps. But now the sun is out and temps are rising above the freezing mark. Winds are quite light, so it’s very nice out there. We lost a little snow yesterday and our snow pack is now about 3 inches. Rain is in the forecast for tomorrow, so I expect that much more will be gone by tomorrow night. It’s always a joy to have a sunny day this time of year. Our…
After a very chilly Friday, our weather has taken a welcome turn for the better. Temps were on the rise all day yesterday, but strong winds made it quite uncomfortable. Today will be warmer and we should lose more of our snow. Our snow pack is now down to 3 inches, so it is slowly melting away. There is more warm weather on the horizon, so I expect most of the snow to be gone by the end of next…
Yesterday was very cold and the wind chill made it worse. Temperatures were at their lowest just before midnight, then they began to rise shortly after and continued all night. We will see this continue all day with our high for the day happening around sunset. The remainder of the week will see temps rising to above average once again, and I hope that they remain there for a while. I just hope that this warmup doesn’t bring severe weather…
We have mostly clear skies and plenty of sun, but it certainly doesn’t feel like it. Highs won’t make it out of the teens today and the wind chill makes it even worse. Thankfully, this is the only day that we’ll have to deal with it because tomorrow will be much warmer. What’s even better is that the warm air is expected to linger a while. So, I guess we can deal with one day of frigid. Our 1:30 PM…
