Another Cloudy Day In Mid Michigan

Another Cloudy Day In Mid Michigan

Today will not bring anything out of the ordinary for a November day.  We have clouds and there is a chance for some showers.  Radar is showing some in the area but I haven’t noticed any raindrops yet.  Last year on this day, our ground was white, so I guess we shouldn’t complain.  Thanksgiving Day is sneaking up on us and I can’t say that I’m ready.  My knee is still giving me a lot of problems and I’m not…

A Typical November Day In Mid Michigan

A Typical November Day In Mid Michigan

We think of November in Michigan as being cold and cloudy, and that’s exactly what we have today.  There’s just enough wind to make it feel even more chilly, but at least there is no snow on the ground.  There isn’t any precipitation in the forecast until possibly tomorrow and that is expected to come as rain.  I’m seeing a few people already putting up their Christmas trees but mine will wait until early December.  The days this time of…

A Bright But Chilly Day In Mid Michigan

A Bright But Chilly Day In Mid Michigan

To look out the window today, it looked beautiful,  but temperatures barely made it out of the 30s.  Skies were clear all day but now some clouds are appearing in the west.  There is no rain expected until Sunday.  Winds were light so it didn’t feel as cold as yesterday.  The weekend may see temps moderating a little but no big warmups are expected. Our 5:10 pm temperature is 37°F (3°C), the humidity is 63%, and winds are calm.  Skies…

A Very Mild, But Gloomy Wednesday For Mid Michigan

A Very Mild, But Gloomy Wednesday For Mid Michigan

Today will be the warmest that we’ll probably have for quite a while with highs expected near 60°F.  Unfortunately, it’s also supposed to be quite wet although all we’ve had so far is a brief 2 minute shower.  Radar is showing most of the rain to our north and heading in a easterly direction.  I’m expecting more to develop later today.  Yesterday was beautiful although highs were only in the low 40s.  There was very little wind and lots of…

Sunny But Very Cold In Mid Michigan

Sunny But Very Cold In Mid Michigan

Our morning has been very pretty but very cold.  It seems good to see the sun, something that we don’t have much of this time of year.  Unfortunately, tomorrow sounds like it will be a washout, but at least it will be rain.  Most of the leaves are now off the trees and colors here in southern Michigan were a disappointment this year.  I think our temperatures were just too warm most of October, so we had to trade color…

First Snowfall Of The Season – Mid Michigan

First Snowfall Of The Season – Mid Michigan

We had a few showers on Saturday which changed to snow overnight.  There was a light covering of snow this morning and it has continued since then.  Forecasts are calling for an inch of snow for us.  I took the picture first thing this morning just as two deer passed through our back yard.  Our back 7 acres has a heavy brush cover for the deer.  My husband keeps trails mowed down so we can walk back there, so seeing…

A Mix Of Sun, Clouds And A Little Rain For Our Saturday – Mid Michigan

A Mix Of Sun, Clouds And A Little Rain For Our Saturday – Mid Michigan

We have had a mix of everything today.  Our morning was cloudy, but now the sun is out and skies have become partly cloudy.  We had a brief shower about half and hour ago with dropped 0.02″ of rain.  I’m seeing that the western side of the state received up to 4 inches of snow in some areas yesterday, but we were lucky and all of that missed us so far.  I’m seeing mixed areas of green and blue on…

Mild Temps With Rain On The Way – Mid Michigan

Mild Temps With Rain On The Way – Mid Michigan

Our Veterans will have a windy, a bit wet, and mild day on this Veterans Day.  I have two in my family and they’re looking forward to taking advantage of the free meals offered to them by many restaurants in the area.  That’s such a nice gesture.  Our morning started out with filtered sun and breezy.  There is a line of showers approaching from the southwest which should be here sometime this afternoon.  I’m going to venture out to do…

Another Lovely Autumn Day In Mid Michigan

Another Lovely Autumn Day In Mid Michigan

Our morning began with dense fog and frost, but it didn’t last long after the sun came up.  Temperatures were very cold overnight and recovery will only be into the mid 50s.  There isn’t much wind so it will be comfortable, especially with the sun out.  My husband mowed the lawn for the final time this year (we hope), and mulched most of the leaves.  Our dry weather continues but that is expected to change late tomorrow and Thursday.  With…

Cloudy And Cooler For Our Tuesday – Mid Michigan

Cloudy And Cooler For Our Tuesday – Mid Michigan

Yesterday was lovely weather-wise.  Unfortunately, we had to spend the day at the hospital in Detroit so we couldn’t enjoy most of it.  In fact, we didn’t get home until sunset.  Temps reached into the mid 60s and it felt like a spring day rather than autumn.  Today is much cooler and cloudy.  Although there is a chance for some rain, there isn’t much appearing on radar at this time and it is all remaining to our north.  We haven’t…
