Cloudy With Snow Flurries . . . . .

We have cool temperatures but actually, close to normal for this date.  Those few very warm days spoiled us but we do have more coming by week’s end.  Right now, the sun is trying to peek out, and we have been having intermittent snow flurries most of the morning.  It won’t be very warm today, but Wednesday and Thursday look to be our pick days of the week. Our 1:15 PM temperature is 35°F, the humidity is 55%, and winds…

It Finally Feels Like Spring . . . .

It Finally Feels Like Spring . . . .

On this last day of winter, we have  a sunny afternoon and mild temperatures.  This should remain through the weekend before the next blast of cold air comes.  Hopefully, it will arrive without unfavorable events.  Our morning was cloudy but no precipitation.  Yesterday saw a few snow flurries from time to time, but hardly noticeable.

A Very Cold St Patrick’s Day . . . . .

A Very Cold St Patrick’s Day . . . . .

I’ve heard that this is the coldest St. Patty’s day that we’ve had in 50 years.  Our Upper Peninsula is digging out from the blizzard and some areas have 5 ft of snow pack.  As for us, temperatures are way below average but at least the wind has calmed down.  Once in a while we have some lake effect snow flurries which make it this far from Lake Michigan.  Even the sun peeks out once in a while.  There is…

Nasty Weather On The Way . . . .

Nasty Weather On The Way . . . .

Yesterday was very blustery, and we can expect more of the same tomorrow.  We could also see some snow or freezing rain early, then temps will rise into the 60s.  That sounds like more tornado weather to me.  Our weather lately has been really weird with it going from one extreme to another.  I hope that it settles down soon. Our 3:15 PM temperature is 38°F, the humidity is 39%, and skies are partly cloudy.  Winds are calm.  The pressure…

Windy And Wet . . . .

Windy And Wet . . . .

This is the type of day that you are happy if you don’t have to go anywhere.  It is cold, very windy, and rainy.  We are under a high wind warning, giving us a very uncomfortable wind chill.  We could get some measurable snow over the next few days although it won’t last.  There was about an inch on my deck this morning but it melted right away. Our 5:15 PM temperature is 36°F, the humidity is 88%, and winds…

More Storms On The Way . . . .

Once again, we are at risk for some pretty hefty storms tonight.  The north portions of our state could get freezing rain.  Right now it is quiet and there has been no rain so far.  We have to travel to Lansing early tomorrow morning, so I’m hoping that it isn’t storming at that time. Our 3 PM temperature is 47°F, the humidity is 84% and winds are from the NNE at 2-7 mph.  The pressure is 29.82 in and rising. …
