Sunny But Very Chilly – Mid Michigan

Sunny But Very Chilly – Mid Michigan

Our Sunday is starting out with plenty of sun but very chilly temperatures.  With the wind now picking up, it won’t be very warm to be out and about today, even with the sun.   Yesterday wasn’t too bad although we had more clouds than sun.  There was the possibility of seeing the northern lights, but the  last I checked, the sky was mostly cloudy.  We rarely see them here anyway, but northern Michigan has that privilege quite often. Our 11:45…

More Chilly Weather For Mid Michigan

The day began with clear skies and frost, but now more clouds have moved it.  Winds are light so it doesn’t feel too cold.  We have a warmup coming next week with highs expected in the 50s for most of it.  Also there is no rain expected until next Friday.  So it looks like we’ll have a stretch of nice weather for a change.  We need some to make up for our wet October. Our 1:45 PM temperature is 44°F…

Not Bad Weather For Mid November

Not Bad Weather For Mid November

Although our temperature is chilly, but within the average range, we have quite a bit of sun and it is a pleasant day.  Just seeing the sun this time of year is a good thing.  This entire week is expected to be dry, so we’re just hoping that the forecast doesn’t change.  Also, we’re expecting a significant warmup by mid week.  That’s always nice. Our 2:15 PM temperature is 48°F (9°C), the humidity is 58%, and skies are partly cloudy. …

Thunderstorms For Our Wednesday Evening – Mid Michigan

Thunderstorms For Our Wednesday Evening – Mid Michigan

We had off and on rain showers early yesterday, which left 0.30″ in my rain gauge.  The afternoon became dry, but then a line of thunderstorms moved over us in the evening.  There was quite a lightning show, and it brought back a feeling of summer once again.  The only reality check was the temperature.  It never did get that warm yesterday which made a rather strange scenario for thunderstorms.  The total rainfall was 1.02″. Our 12:30 PM temperature is…

Nasty Weather For Our Wednesday – Mid Michigan

Nasty Weather For Our Wednesday – Mid Michigan

It is a dark and gloomy day in Michigan with many areas having rain and wintry mixes.  We had rain this morning but most now remains to our north.  This is the type of day when I wish we had snow.  At least it would be much brighter outdoors.  But alas, it is what it is and we have to deal with it.  I’m sure that there is a lot more to come. Our 3:15 PM temperature is 39°F (4°C),…

Cloudy And Cold – Mid Michigan

Cloudy And Cold – Mid Michigan

After a very mild Monday, today feels more seasonable.  Highs won’t make it out of the 40s and I think our mild weather is done for a while.  All the thunderstorms missed us yesterday except for a few sprinkles.  The winds made it difficult to enjoy the 60 degree temps and Mother Nature reminded us that the November winds are a reality.   We did see a few peeks of the sun but I doubt that it will happen today. Our…

A Few Sprinkles For Our Monday – Mid Michigan

A Few Sprinkles For Our Monday – Mid Michigan

There was quite an impressive line of thunderstorms coming off Lake Michigan this morning, but they continued to fall apart as they moved across the state; most that would have affected us, dwindled before reaching us.  I’m seeing no more rain behind this first line on the radar, so it looks like the rest of the day may be dry.  Winds are the issue with gusts up to 30 mph.  I don’t expect to see much of the sun today….

A Beautiful November Day In Mid Michigan

A Beautiful November Day In Mid Michigan

This morning began with dense fog, but the sun burned it off and it turned into a mostly sunny, mild afternoon.  We do have a thin cloud cover but not enough to hide the sun, and winds are very light.  Today was supposed to be a washout, but we lucked out and the rain forecast was pushed back a day.  Today is our first on Eastern Standard Time, and it seemed so good to be bright at 8AM for a…

After some overnight rain, our afternoon has become partly sunny with mild temperatures.  Also winds are expected to be light, so wind chill values will be insignificant.  This is a good day to get out and do any last minute  chores that need to be done before winter.  Also, rain chances for tomorrow are less than previously expected, so the weekend may be a good one.
