Mid Michigan Weather

We are seeing temperatures in the mid 80s today.  That’s 20 degrees above where it should be, but who’s complaining?  Besides that, the humidity is low so it’s very comfortable.  Skies are completely clear and breezes are light.  There is no rain expected until Thursday, and then below average temperatures will set in.  We always have to pay for our out-of-season nice weather. Our 3:30 PM temperature is 86°F (30°C), the humidity is 42%, and winds are from the S…

These will be our final days of temps in the 80s, at least for now anyway.  I’m hoping that it will still happen again before the end of October, but I’m happy with the 70s also.  Regardless, we will certainly enjoy what we have before a drastic cool-down and rain on Thursday.  Temps next weekend aren’t even expected to reach out of the 50s.  That’s really a drastic change!  I’m seeing a big decrease in the bird traffic at my…

I hope that most of October is like this weather-wise.  It’s absolutely beautiful with above average temps and plenty of sun.  Our temperatures are expected to be warm the remainder of this week, and we could see some rain by week’s end.  But we’ll enjoy this while it lasts. Our 11:45 AM temp is 73°F (23°C), the humidity is 70%, and the dew point is 60°F (16°C).  Winds are from the SW at 2-5 , mph, and visibility is 10…

Once again, we have fog.  This is common for Michigan this time of year.  We can see the sun peeking through and I’m sure that it will clear up by noon.  Today begins a period of summer-like weather which is expected to last for the next 5-6 days.  I’m loving it!  We will probably see upper 70s and even 80 degrees over the next week.  This is also expected to be a dry period so that makes it even nicer….

We are supposed to see a little sun this afternoon, but so far, it hasn’t made an appearance.  It’ll probably clear up at sundown.  But no matter, tomorrow is supposed to be beautiful.  We could even see 80 degrees this weekend.  The next few days should be rain free, and we could use a dry spell so the grass quits growing and the mosquitoes become less. Our 4 PM temperature is 69°F (21°C), the humidity is 76% and skies are…

Yesterday brought us intermittent rain showers which became heavier as the day wore on.  There was 0.19″ in my gauge this morning, and looking at the CoCoRahs reports this morning, most stations in southern Michigan recorded more than that.  We are seeing a little more color everyday, and peak color isn’t expected for a few more weeks yet.  These cloudy skies don’t appear to be going anywhere in the next few days, but the weekend is expected to be nice. …

We haven’t received any significant rainfall in the past 24 hours, but rain is still in our forecast.  Fine weather is expected to return for the weekend and that’s always a good thing.  We could even see temperatures near 80 degrees once again.  But for today, we won’t even make it to 70 degrees. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 62°F (17°C), the humidity is 88%, and skies are overcast.  Winds are from the E at 3-6 mph and the dew…

We had clouds most of yesterday, then a little rain late in the afternoon.  It didn’t amount to much, but by this morning there was 0.23″ in my rain gauge.  Showers and a possible thundershower are in the forecast for today, so it doesn’t sound like there will be much going on outdoors today.  At least the temperatures are mild. Our 10 AM temperature is 63°F (17°C), the humidity is 95% and skies are overcast.  Winds are from the NE…

  Once again, we have warm temps and plenty of sunshine.  Unfortunately, I’ve picked up some sort of bug and am not feeling very good.  At least the sun brightens my spirits.  This weather has been gorgeous and it’s expected to last a while longer.  It just doesn’t get any better than this for late September. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 72°F (22°C), the humidity is 60%, and winds are from the ENE at 1-5 mph.  Skies are clear and…

We have the beginning of a sunny and warm weekend.  What great weather for that late season camping trip or anything else that you want to do.  Again, there is no rain in our forecast although areas north of us had some quick showers yesterday afternoon.  I’ve given up on my gardens for the year, so they’ll just have to rely on the next rainy day to survive.  With this cooler weather and high dew points, they don’t dry out…
