Today is the first that we have noticed some of the trees having colored leaves. It seems a bit late to me as we usually see this in late August. But that’s a sure sign that autumn is really here. Temperatures will be close to average and there is no rain in the forecast. It is supposed to be sunny today and that hasn’t happened so far. It does seem a little brighter than is was earlier, so I have…
After a few very fall-like days, summer weather seems to be returning once again. Temps will reach the 80s by the weekend and early next week. The humidity will be low so it will be great for anyone doing end of summer traveling or vacations. I have some bushes that need trimming so this will be ideal for that. The nights have been getting quite chilly, almost too chilly to have the windows open. In fact, we ran the furnace…
The rains came late yesterday. We received a little over half and inch from late afternoon into the overnight. It was badly needed. Radar is showing rain moving around a low pressure center located over southern Lake Michigan, so we could see even more rain later today. The sun has peeked out a few times but didn’t last long, and now it is gloomy once again. What’s most noticeable are the temperatures. They are much below average today and will…
Showers and a few thunderstorms moved across the eastern half of lower Michigan last night, but we didn’t get anything here. This morning began with a few sprinkles and cloudy skies but no significant rain so far. Radar is keeping us hopeful that we’ll get a good rainfall yet today. According to the forecast, it should happen. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 70°F, the humidity is 95%, and skies are overcast. Winds are calm. The dew point is 66°F and…
Skies were clear this morning, but now mostly cloudy skies have appeared. We do have rain in our forecast for this afternoon and we really could use it. The lawn is getting brown again. Today should be the warmest that we’ll see for awhile with highs expected in the mid 80s. Next week should be much cooler with some days possibly not even reaching 70°F. I’m ready for it. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 81°F, the humidity is 67%, and…
There really isn’t much more to say about our weather other than it being great! We are expecting it to end, however, with much cooler temps and rain for the weekend and into early next week. Regardless, our weather so far this month has been nicer than usual and we’ll take it. The extended forecasts are predicting warmer than average temps into mid October. Our 11 AM temp is 75F, the humidity is 57%, and skies are clear. Winds are…
We have clear skies, light breezes, and very warm temperatures. It’s warm enough to have the AC back on but it got a rest the past three days. I had my window open last night and actually got cold. Lows fell to the upper 40s. This gorgeous weather is expected to last through the weekend, then another cool-down. Our 3 PM temperature is 80°F, the humidity is 44%, and skies are clear. The dew point is 53°F and winds are…
Today turned out to be a very pleasant late summer day. It is sunny, winds are light, and the humidity is low. It’s just a nice day to spend outdoors doing something because we won’t be having many more of them. This year is just flying by and I can’t believe that summer is almost over. We are expecting the rest of this month to be warmer than normal and I’m hoping that October is just as nice. Our 2:30…
Yesterday was chilly and cloudy. We were supposed to see the sun late in the day, but it never happened. Today we have more of the same, and temperatures will still be on the cooler side. Once again, they are saying that we should have a little sun by day’s end, but so far it is still overcast. Highs are expected to reach the upper 70s but that remains to be seen also. At any rate, it’s not raining and…
The weather is certainly different from what was originally predicted. We have sprinkles this morning and cloudy skies. The temps are also cooler than what was supposed to be, but that’s not unusual for Michigan. Yesterday was cloudy and chilly. Highs never even reached 70 degrees and I’m wondering if they will today. Chances for rain were only 20%, and it isn’t enough to do any good. Oh well, it is what it is. Our 10 AM temperature is 63°F,…
