We have wonderful weather to end the Holiday weekend. Temperatures may break the record high with them expected to reach into the low 90s. It’s already pretty warm but the breeze keeps it comfortable . . . . . . at least for now. There is no rain in the forecast although we could see an increase in the cloud cover later. I hope that this weather will keep repeating as the month rolls on. Our 11:45 AM temperature is…
After a week of comfortable weather, we have to deal with a few very hot days. We should see temps in the 90s until mid-week. I guess we can put up with it that long. I’m not a fan of hot weather, but as long as the humidity isn’t too high, it’s tolerable for me. Our 11 AM temperature is 77°F (25°C), the humidity is 66%, and skies are clear. Winds are from the SW at 4-8 mph, and the…
We have another nice day for our holiday weekend. Although the skies have been mostly cloudy, temperatures are comfortable. We did have a few sprinkles earlier but just a few. There is no rain in the forecast until the middle of this coming week. Tomorrow, temps will be on the rise with highs reaching into the 90s before the next rain comes. I’m hoping that we have a long and lovely autumn. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 77°F, the humidity…
Today is the beginning of the Labor Day Weekend, as well as the beginning of Meteorological Autumn. That’s what I go by as far as seasons go, so to me, it is now autumn. Summer is over. We can see the daylight hours getting shorter and there is definitely the feeling of Fall in the air. I haven’t seen many trees changing color yet, but I’m sure it will happen soon. Our 10 AM temperature is 65°F, the humidity is…
We had another great day with nice temperatures in the low 70s, and low humidity. We need to enjoy it because more hot weather in on the way this weekend. The low last night fell into the low 40s, and I had to turn the furnace on this morning. Highs are expected to reach the 90s again and will remain until mid week. The holiday weekend should be perfect for those going camping, maybe for the last time this year. …
Yesterday brought a couple of thundershowers which left 0.22″ in my rain gauge. They didn’t last long but produced moderate rainfall when they came. We really didn’t need them but the remainder of the week is supposed to be dry. Not only that, but we have another round of hot weather knocking on our door. I’m seeing that September is suppose to be quite warm, and I won’t complain about that. I love warm autumns. Our 1:15 PM temperature is…
Our morning is pleasant but we are expecting more storms this afternoon. We certainly don’t need any more rain for awhile as our yard hasn’t totally dried out from last Thursday. But it is what it is, and at least we aren’t dealing with what Florida is expecting. It sure doesn’t sound good for them, especially since hurricane winds aren’t expected to diminish as it crosses the state. I wouldn’t want to deal with that every hurricane season. I guess…
Today has been a perfect day with low humidity, cool temps, and light breezes. Yesterday started out cloudy but then the skies became partly cloudy in the afternoon. This entire week is expected to see below normal temperature, but then a big warmup for the holiday weekend. That should make a lot of people happy. Our 3:15 PM temperature is 72°F (22°C), the humidity is 56%, and skies are mostly clear. The pressure is 30.00 in (1015.9mb) and falling. Winds…
There was a lot of damage from Thursday night’s storms. There were six confirmed tornadoes just in the Detroit area. Then there were two in Livingston County and another near Grand Rapids. The weather forecast for Thursday called for severe thunderstorms, and they weren’t kidding. We were lucky. No loss of power or any other damage to our property. We received over two inches of rain Thursday and now the lawn is like a sponge. We are expected to have…
We were warned of the possibility of severe weather yesterday, and the storms that happened were “overachievers” according to one meteorologist. The above picture shows the radar from yesterday and you can see the massive amount of lightning strikes. There are many in the state without power and much structural and tree damage. I haven’t heard the number of actual tornadoes, but with hurricane-force winds, it didn’t really matter. Yes, winds that came with this storm were recorded at 70-80…
