Although we had no severe weather yesterday, we did have a few thunderstorms that passed over giving us 0.45″ of rainfall. Other areas weren’t as lucky. Perry, a small town about 15 miles to our southwest, was hit by a tornado about 8:30 last evening. What was ironic is that the tornado hit their tornado siren, so there was so warning. It is still too early to estimate the damage and it’s rating, but there are no reported injuries or…
Right now, the storms are remaining well to our north, but NOAA is giving us a 70% chance for them to reach our area later this afternoon. Some could be heavy with small hail and strong winds, but nothing severe is really expected. Right now it is quite pleasant and temps are only in the mid 70s. Highs should only reach the upper 70s to near 80°F. Our 1:15 PM temperature is 75°F (24°C), the humidity is 59%, and skies…
Our forecast is calling for only a slight chance of rain, but looking at the sky, it looks like some storms may be brewing. It won’t be as warm today and the humidity isn’t as high. So far it’s been mostly sunny and pleasant. Not a bad day at all. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 76°F (24°C), the humidity is 67%, and skies are mostly cloudy. Winds are from the west at 4-8 mph, and the dew point is 61°F…
We had a popup thundershower yesterday evening which dropped 0.16″ of rain on us. It was just a small cell which formed just to our northwest, and it moved right over us. It didn’t last very long, and fell apart as quickly as it formed. It was just enough to get everything wet. The rest of yesterday was nice. Temperatures were comfortable and no mosquitoes. Our 12:15 PM temperature is 79°F (26°C), the humidity is 61% and skies are clear. …
Today is sunny and temperatures and humidity are at a comfortable level. We couldn’t ask for anything better. The forecast is saying that we could see some rain this afternoon but that remains to be seen. We certainly don’t need anymore at this time. Our 12:15 PM temperature is 78°F (26°C), the humidity is a comfortable 58%, and skies are mostly clear. Breezes are light at 4-9 mph from the WNW, and the dew point is 58°F (14°C). The pressure…
We had rain all day Sunday. It ranged from light sprinkles to heavy downpours. We received a total of 1.51″ by the time it ended. I’m sure the mosquitoes are happy. Today has been a grey, damp day although no rain so far. Our highs never made it out of the low 60s yesterday and today won’t be very warm either. Tomorrow should bring back normal temps. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 64°F (18°C), the humidity is 82% and skies…
It started raining early this morning and has continued since then, with a few breaks. There was 0.14 in in my gauge at 8:30 and I’m not sure how much more has fallen since then. Radar shows that it may have a ways to go before it ends. At least I won’t have to water anything for a few days. Our 1:45 PM temperature is 62°F (17°C), the humidity is 94%, and skies are overcast with moderate rain. The pressure…
I almost hate bragging about our great weather when so much of the country is melting and dehydrating. But I guess when you choose to live in parts of the country that have no winter weather, you have to accept the good with the bad. As for me, I’ll gladly put up with a little snow to not deal with the summer extremes. Also, I love the season changes. Autumn is one of my favorites. Right now, we have a…
As summer days go, it doesn’t get much nicer than what we have today. Temperatures are comfortably warm and the humidity is also at a comfortable level. You really can’t beat Michigan in the summer in terms of weather. That’s why I’ll never live anywhere else. Our 3 PM temperature is 79°F, the humidity is 51%, and winds are from the NW at 2-8 mph. The dew point is 57°F and the pressure is 29.92 in and steady. Skies are…
Today should be a fine day if you like “hot”. Highs could reach near the 90 degree mark and that’s a little too warm for me. There isn’t much breeze either, so very uncomfortable to those with no AC. There is a possibility for some rain tonight but slight. My husband got out early to mow the lawn before it got too hot. Good idea. With all the rain that we’ve been getting lately, it grows fast. Our 1:45…
