Not A Bad Friday Afternoon For Mid Michigan

Not A Bad Friday Afternoon For Mid Michigan

It isn’t very warm today but light winds make it comfortable.  We received a little rain overnight but barely enough to get things wet.  Today has been cloudy but dry.  Tomorrow is expected to be a big mess with a rain/snow mix and very strong winds.  This seems to happen every weekend lately.  I think that it will be mostly rain, but we could see a little accumulation tomorrow night.  It will probably melt right away so no big deal. …

A Little Overnight Rain For Mid Michigan

A Little Overnight Rain For Mid Michigan

We received 0.24″ of rain overnight, and it has been dry since then.  It’s a bit of a dreary day but the temperature is mild and winds are light.  Not bad for being out and about.  They have even removed rain from our forecast  for the rest of today and tonight.  Unfortunately, they haven’t removed the “snow” word from this weekend’s forecast, although it’s expected to be a rain/snow mix, so I guess we can live with that. Our 2:15…

Cloudy With Rain On The Way For Mid Michigan

Cloudy With Rain On The Way For Mid Michigan

After a lovely Tuesday, today won’t be quite as nice.  Although it is dry right now, we are expecting showers to move in later in the day.  Highs will still make it into the low 50s, and that should last through most of the week.  Cooler temps will arrive for the weekend and there is even a chance of snow possible.  Since this is still March, we have to expect that.  The next few days could be on the wet…

Mostly Cloudy With Some Sun Shining Through – Mid Michigan

Mostly Cloudy With Some Sun Shining Through – Mid Michigan

We have a sky full of clouds, but somehow, the sun has been out most of the morning.  We will see highs well into the 50s today, and it should be a very nice day.  I think I’ll take the dog out to run in the yard.  I think she has cabin fever, and the only thing she cares about lately is food.  There is no rain expected until possibly tonight, and definitely tomorrow.  Our lawn has been taken over…

Sunny And Warmer In Mid Michigan

Sunny And Warmer In Mid Michigan

It is looking like a gorgeous day out there.  Temperatures will be warmer than what we have had, but the wind will still be a problem.  Most, if not all, of our snow is gone, but there are still a few stubborn small patches of ice, the remnants of our ice storm a few weeks ago.  They should definitely see their demise this week with highs expected in the 50s on most days. Our 11 AM temperature is 39°F (4°C),…

The Beginning Of Some Spring-Like Weather For Mid Michigan

The Beginning Of Some Spring-Like Weather For Mid Michigan

Today will still be a bit chilly, but temperatures will continue to rise as the week goes on.  We should see highs in the 50s most of the week, and hopefully, that will rid us of the rest of this ice.  There are still patches of it in shady spots, but it has dwindled significantly.  We will still have strong winds today and that will make it feel quite a bit colder than what the thermometer shows, but at least…

Intermittent Lake Effect Snow Squalls For Our Saturday – Mid Michigan

Intermittent Lake Effect Snow Squalls For Our Saturday – Mid Michigan

Today really feels like winter.  We are having off and on snow squalls which only last a few minutes,  but are heavy enough to affect visibility for those out driving.  We aren’t going to see much warming today and we have about half an inch of snow cover.  The biggest issue is the wind.  Our wind chill is in the single digits and temps won’t even come close to the freezing mark.   Right now, the sky has some breaks in…

A Cloudy, Windy, Miserable Day In Mid Michigan

A Cloudy, Windy, Miserable Day In Mid Michigan

We don’t have a very nice St. Paddy’s day here in Michigan.  Temperatures have been dropping since early this morning, and we are seeing light snow flurries.  The winds are brutal and it is not a nice day to be outdoors, for sure.  On the positive side, this cold spell will only last a few days, then a nice warmup once again.  We all know how bipolar Mother Nature is, so we just have to grin and bear it.  At…

Rain Moving In For This Afternoon And Tonight – Mid Michigan

Rain Moving In For This Afternoon And Tonight – Mid Michigan

We are expecting a good amount of rain for later today, tonight, and part of tomorrow.  I’m hoping that it will be warm enough to finally melt the large patch of ice that we have in our front yard.  Some has melted when the sun hits it, but that’s not too often.  Then the weather will turn cold again and snow is in the forecast for this weekend.  This is supposed to be spring and it seemed more like spring…

A Beautiful Day Ahead For Mid Michigan

A Beautiful Day Ahead For Mid Michigan

It warmed up enough yesterday to melt most of our snow.  We still have a few icy patches where the sun doesn’t shine, but the snow is gone.  We are expecting highs in the 50s the next few days and rain.  I’m hoping that it will finally melt these icy spots.  Our sky is clear and the humidity is very low, so it’ll be a great day for getting outdoors for a walk or whatever. Our 12:45 PM temperature is…
