After scattered rain showers yesterday, today will be much cooler and brighter. The rain has ended, and we should see a lot of sun for the next four days. The entire weekend brought intermittent rain showers , some quite heavy, and we received almost two inches of rain total. There certainly hasn’t been a scarcity of rain this summer, and that has been great for the farmers. Our 9:30 AM temperature is 63°F (17°C), the humidity is 82%, and skies…
Yesterday brought us several heavy rain storms. Total rainfall was almost an inch and a half. There was a little T and L, but nothing even close to severe. Today is expected to be much the same, although right now, the sun is peeking through a little. There are a lot of dark clouds, but not much precip is showing on the radar at this time. Temperatures will be comfortable, but the humidity will make it feel very sticky. Our…
We had a little rain early Friday, then a thundershower overnight. Both left about three quarters of an inch total in the rain gauge. Our sky is overcast right now, and radar is showing more rain cells dotting the map. I guess we won’t be doing much outdoors today. Our 11:30 AM temperature is 74°F (23°C), the humidity is 89%, and winds are from the SW at 2-5 mph. The pressure is 29.66 in (1004.4 mb) and steady. Visibility is…
Rain began late last night, and continued throughout the overnight. There was 0.33″ in my rain gauge at 7:30 this morning, and we have had intermittent light rain since then. We could expect some heavy thunderstorms later today, tonight, and tomorrow, but all has been calm so far. There is a slight chance that some could be severe, but that really isn’t expected. Our 1 PM temperature is 69°F (21°C), the humidity is 94%, and winds are from the SE…
Our morning is beginning with a thin cloud cover and filtered sun. Clouds will be on the increase and showers and thunderstorms will develop late in the day. We have a marginal risk of severe weather over the next few days, and we can expect wet weather right through the weekend. Our 9:45 AM temperature is 68°F, the humidity is 85%, and winds are from the ESE at 1-7 mph. The pressure is 30.05 in and steady, and the dew…
We have yet another partly cloudy day with very warm temps, and almost no breeze. There is still no rain in our forecast until tomorrow night, and temperatures will remain in the 80s until the rain moves in on Friday. Then we are expected to have a bit of a cool down next week. Right now it looks like we can expect some rain this weekend, but not a total washout. Pretty typical for summer in Michigan. Our 4 PM…
Our morning began with clear skies, but now clouds have taken over. Temperatures should be comfortable. There is no rain in our forecast until Thursday night and it looks like there won’t be much breeze today. Another AC day. Why is there never much breeze when temps get hot? Our 2:15 PM temperature is 81°F, the humidity is 54%, and winds are from the west at 1-3 mph. The pressure is 30.08 in and steady, and the dew point is…
Our lovely summer weather continues, and I really can’t say much more than that. I sat out last night watching for northern lights, or meteors, and wouldn’t you know it! Fifteen minutes after going out, clouds rolled in. It wasn’t just scattered clouds, it was an entire cloud cover. Michigan is disappointing when it comes to sky watching. Our 11:15 AM temperature is 71°F, the humidity is 65%, and winds are from the NW at 2-6 mph, and the pressure…
We were surprised by a little rain late last night. It happened around midnight, and left 0.07″ in my gauge. I was seeing small cells scattered on our radar map, and one just happened to move right over us. It only lasted about 5 minutes, just enough to get everything wet. Today has a mix of sun and clouds, and temperatures should be a little warmer than yesterday. It will also be a little breezy, so another good day to…
Yesterday was lovely, and today will also be nice, but temperatures will remain much below normal. In addition, winds will be quite strong making it feel even cooler. I guess we could say that it will be a sweatshirt day here in Michigan. I don’t have a problem with it and will take this weather over 90 degrees anytime. There is no rain mentioned in our forecast until next Friday. Our 10 AM temperature is 62°F (17°C), the humidity is…
