Could This Be The End Of Our Summer-Like Weather? Mid Michigan

Could This Be The End Of Our Summer-Like Weather? Mid Michigan

We could see highs nearing 80° this afternoon and I’m thinking that this will be it for our very warm temperatures.  Yesterday was cold and wet leaving 0.02″ in my rain gauge.  There is a lot of rain showing on the radar this morning but it is passing to our northwest and it doesn’t appear that any will reach us.  That’s fine with me.  The colors in my area are becoming more vibrant but peak colors should be this upcoming…

Wet, Gloomy Weather Continues in Mid Michigan

Wet, Gloomy Weather Continues in Mid Michigan

Although we did get a few glimpses of the sun yesterday, most of it was gloomy with drizzle.  We had a thunder shower early in the morning but it didn’t last long and the thunder was distant.  There is only 0.09″ in my gauge this morning.  I noticed on CoCoRahs that most areas received a lot more rain than we did.  We do have a rising barometer and I’m hoping that we see a little more sun today. Our 9:45…

Heavy Rain For Our Saturday Morning – Mid Michigan

Heavy Rain For Our Saturday Morning – Mid Michigan

Radar is showing a mass of rain heading our way from the southwest.  We have a little thunder but mostly just heavy rain.  I was lucky to get the dogs out before it began because it looks like it will last a while.  Yesterday was cloudy and misty without much let up through the day.  The only good thing is that temperatures will be very warm, but that doesn’t mean much if it’s raining. Our 9:30 AM temp is 60°F…

More Rain On The Way After A Lovely Thursday – Mid Michigan

More Rain On The Way After A Lovely Thursday – Mid Michigan

Radar is showing a large mass of rain moving in from the southwest.  The past two days have been lovely so at least we got a little break.  My husband managed to get the lawn mowed yesterday.  Today is expected to be wet most of the day along with cool temps.  Some towns in the UP saw snow for the first time yesterday and I hope it is a while before we do.  I’m hearing that we will be seeing…

Finally! Some Dry Weather in Mid Michigan

Finally! Some Dry Weather in Mid Michigan

Yesterday was absolutely gorgeous.  Our temps made it into the 80s and the humidity was low.  There was a nice breeze which kept the house comfortable with the windows open.  Storms were rolling in late in the day but they didn’t affect us here where I am.  Inf fact, there was only 0.08″ in my gauge this morning.  The UP, however, received some pretty heavy weather but I haven’t heard of any storm damage as yet.  Today is also a…

A Very Wet Tuesday For Mid Michigan

A Very Wet Tuesday For Mid Michigan

Tuesday was damp and misty all day.  There was an additional 0.06″ in my gauge this morning, and although the rain has finally stopped, it is still damp and not a pleasant morning to be sure.   Our temperatures will be very warm with highs expected near 80°F.  This warm-up is expected to last for a few days although it won’t be dry.  Rain is in the forecast almost everyday, and not much sun is expected.  Our lawn is about 4…

Finally Stopped Raining After Another Inch of Rain – Mid Michigan

Finally Stopped Raining After Another Inch of Rain – Mid Michigan

Yesterday could be described as a total washout.  It would quit raining for a little while, then start up again with a vengeance.  Over the past four days, we received almost three inches of rain.  I think that we have enough for a while.  Right now, we have fog and light mist.  Temperatures will start to rise today and continue over the next few days as a brief warm front moves in from the south.  There is a chance of…

Enough Rain Already – Mid Michigan

Enough Rain Already – Mid Michigan

It seems like all it has done for the past week is rain.  As of 8:15 this morning, there was 1.24 in of rain in my gauge and it is still coming down.  Since yesterday morning, we have received just under two inches.  Looking at the radar,  showers and storms are training from the west, so it looks to be a very wet Monday.  I hope that this doesn’t continue through the entire month of October and into the winter…

The Weather In Northern Michigan Is Not So Nice

The Weather In Northern Michigan Is Not So Nice

Since we arrived here last Friday, it has rained almost everyday.  It hasn’t been all day rains, just enough to keep the sand wet so that we are constantly tracking it into our trailer.  The weather has been warm until now.  With this latest cold front, we now will have temps struggling into the 50s for our highs.  Today’s high should reach the mid 60s, but after today, it will be much cooler.  I know that we can’t expect perfect…
