Yesterday was another beautiful day here in mid Michigan. Temps rose into the mid to upper 70s which broke many records. We certainly did enjoy it and I was able to sleep with my window open for possibly the last time this year. Today is quite a bit cooler but still not a bad day. Highs will be about 15 degrees cooler but still well above average for this date. Right now is the warmest it will be today with…
Although it’s a bit breezy, it is absolutely gorgeous outdoors. This is amazing for November 10, and it will probably be the last where we would want to sit outdoors. My husband is out doing some last minute chores before winter sets in, and it sounds like that may happen in just two days. Highs over the weekend will only reach into the 30s and there is snow in the forecast. But today is a gem and we’ll take what…
Temperatures are a little cooler today but it is otherwise very nice. Skies are mostly clear with a few clouds passing over, and winds are light to moderate. Mother Nature just keeps giving us fine weather although I know it will end soon. This weekend will be more seasonable with highs only expected in the 40s. But even that isn’t too bad if we have sun. It would be great if this lasted all winter but I’m still waiting for…
Although our temperatures are quite chilly today, at least we have clear skies and bright sun to help make it feel warmer. It is a bit breezy but not a bad day at all. We are expecting another very warm day on Thursday, but then temps take a real nosedive into next weekend. We should expect it this time of year, but it’s so hard letting go of these above-average temps. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 54°F, the humidity is…
Yesterday’s blustery conditions resulted in an extraordinary sunset which drew a lot of attention from area photographers. The picture above is just one, but there are many more on the Michigan weather group on Facebook. These pictures are amazing and the sky kept changing colors every few minutes. Strong winds continued into the overnight, but they had calmed substantially by this morning. The strongest wind gust that I’ve seen was 63 mph in Mt. Pleasant area. The highest in our…
Daylight Savings Time ends tonight. We are under a wind advisory today until 9PM, with gusts expected up to 50 mph. So far we haven’t seen any that strong but it is windy enough to make it uncomfortable to be outdoors. We haven’t seen much of the sun today either and rain is in the forecast for tonight. Radar isn’t showing any rain close to us yet but mostly for tonight. The maple trees are still hanging on to a…
Today will be the last spring-like day so we better get ready for what’s ahead. The “gales of November” will be upon us tomorrow with wind gusts expected to be 40-50 mph. Winds will increase today as the day rolls on so it won’t be very pleasant to be outdoors. The morning began with partly cloudy skies and sun, but now more clouds are moving in and that will set the stage for a cooler and blustery day on Saturday. …
Highs today will reach the 70°F mark, and this is expected to last until Sunday. It is a bit breezy today and there is plenty of sun. Unfortunately, driving can be a challenge with the sun so low in the sky. The visors in the car sometimes just aren’t big enough. This is the only time when I wish for cloudy skies, when I have to drive somewhere. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 69°F, the humidity is 59%, and skies…
Once again, our morning began with fog, but it wasn’t as dense as previous mornings. The sun appeared rather quickly and it burned off right away. We could see highs near 70°F this afternoon so it will be another great day to get out and enjoy while it lasts. These warm temps are expected to last through the weekend but with them will come rain. Oh well, at least it isn’t snow. Our 12:45 PM temperature is 64°F, the humidity…
I can’t believe this weather. Just when we think that the warm weather is finished, we get another round of it. This morning began with dense fog and visibility less than a mile, but now the sky is clearing and it looks to be a great day. Highs are expected in the mid 60s with 70s for the weekend. Thank you God. We did received a little more rain yesterday but it ended by late afternoon. We picked up an…
