Snow Showers For Our Monday – Mid Michigan

Snow Showers For Our Monday – Mid Michigan

Our morning began with a light cover of snow on bare surfaces, but my rain gauge had just water.  We received 0.36″ of precip yesterday and overnight, and snow showers have continued throughout our early afternoon.  This should be the order of the day.  It is also quite blustery out there, so not a nice day to have to go out.  All the snow is melting on contact, so no accumulations are expected.  This will be our coldest day this…

A Cold Front And Storms For Our Sunday – Mid Michigan

A Cold Front And Storms For Our Sunday – Mid Michigan

Our summer-like weather is coming to an end with an approaching cold front.  We certainly enjoyed our weather this past week, especially the few 80 degree days that we had.  It sure brought the leaf sprouts out on the trees and bushes.  The forsythias are in full bloom, as are the daffodils and other spring flowers; it’s now time for some rain which is badly needed.  There are burn advisories  and no burn permits are being issued at this time. …

Our Dry Weather Is Coming To An End – Mid Michigan

Our Dry Weather Is Coming To An End – Mid Michigan

Yesterday was a record breaker once again for high temperatures.  Today will be warm but not enough to exceed the current record of 87°F (30C).  Regardless, it will be a lovely day to get outdoors and take in the sun.  Rain will return to our area tomorrow and last through Sunday.  There is a very slight chance that we could see some severe storms on Sunday.  Then more seasonable temperatures will return.  Late next week, highs are expected to be…

Record High Temperatures For Mid Michigan

Record High Temperatures For Mid Michigan

We have been graced with record high temperatures yesterday and today.  It will be hard going back to average temps again.  People are out in shorts, sandals, tank tops and thoroughly loving it.  It’s hard to believe that snow is mentioned for Monday even though it will probably be mixed with rain.  We knew it would happen.  We can’t expect summer weather to last in April.  The buds on the trees have really sprouted with this heat.  It’s so nice…

Summer-Like Weather Coming To An End – Mid Michigan

Summer-Like Weather Coming To An End – Mid Michigan

We better enjoy these last few days of “shorts” weather because it is about to come to an end.  Next week will be back to average, even below average temps once again, and early next week will be cold and wet.  After all the rain that we had a week ago, they are now warning us of possible wild fires because it is so dry.  It’s amazing how quickly the elements can change.  Some internet weather people are warning of…

A Beautiful Holy Saturday In Mid Michigan

A Beautiful Holy Saturday In Mid Michigan

After more rain than we need, this weekend and the upcoming week sound wonderful.  Every day will be a little warmer with the 70s expected by week’s end.  It doesn’t get any better than that.  Much of the water has receded but many of the fields still have a lot of standing water, and the river is still near flood levels. Our 3 PM temperature is 55°F (13°C), the humidity is 46%, and skies are mostly cloudy with filtered sun. …

This upcoming week is expected to be beautiful.  There are no storm systems approaching and temperatures will remain above average; even hitting the 70 degree mark later in the week.  This morning is a bit chilly and probably won’t make it out of the upper 40s, but the sun will make it feel warmer.  There is a lot of standing water around, and many of the  fields are flooded.  I’m sure the farmers are happy with this forecast.  It’s time…
