More Chilly Temps, Cloudy Skies – Mid Michigan

More Chilly Temps, Cloudy Skies – Mid Michigan

I don’t have much to say about our weather except it is just more of the same.  The big winter storm, heading in this direction, is expected to remain to our west and south, and we may get some rain or a few flurries from it.  At least, that’s how it looks right now.  I’m really hoping that we get a few inches by Christmas.  It seems so much brighter with snow during these dark days of winter.  Today will…

Cloudy, Cold, And A Trace Of Snow – Mid Michigan

Cloudy, Cold, And A Trace Of Snow – Mid Michigan

Yesterday was a typical early December day with overcast skies and cold temps.  We did receive a bit of snow early in the evening, which left a light covering of white, mainly on smooth surfaces.  Most of it was gone by morning with still just a trace remaining.  There is more snow in the forecast for tonight, but the heavy snow which is affecting areas to our south, is totally missing us.  Forecasters are saying that we have about a…

Cloudy And Mild – Mid Michigan

Cloudy And Mild – Mid Michigan

Today isn’t half bad with cloudy skies, light winds, and mild temperatures.  We did get a little rain yesterday, only 0.02″.  We had some light fog this morning and it is still a little hazy.  No rain is expected today, and there are no real storm chances anytime soon for us.  I’m hearing predictions of a possible major winter storm happening in about a week, but that remains to be seen.  Also, exactly who will be affected by it isn’t…

Little Sun, More Clouds In Mid Michigan

We have another dreary day, but the sun did peek out briefly this afternoon.  We had a few sprinkles early this morning, but it left not much more than a trace of rain.  Temperatures are right around normal for this date, and winds are light.  We went out and did a bit of Christmas shopping and mine is about done, thank heavens.  I’m hearing that our chances for a white Christmas are pretty good and I hope it happens.  Snow…

Another Windy Day For Mid Michigan

Another Windy Day For Mid Michigan

I looks like a beautiful day until the wind hits you.  The sky is cloudless, and that’s the only thing which makes it feel even slightly mild.  At least the furnace doesn’t run nearly as much when the sun is out. We better enjoy it because our forecast isn’t giving us much sun over the upcoming week, and there is even snow on tap for Thursday. Our 2:45 PM temperature is 38°F, the humidity is 54%, and winds are from…

Yesterday finished with temps in the low 50s and very strong winds.  They really ramped up after midnight and we are under a wind advisory which should be expiring soon.  We are expected to see a little sun this afternoon, and I hope that happens.  It seems so dark and dreary right now.  Temps have been falling all morning and are expected to only be in the 20s later.

Quite Nice Here In Mid Michigan

Quite Nice Here In Mid Michigan

Our morning began with mostly cloudy skies, but since then, it has cleared up nicely although it is quite cold.  The wind has diminished so it isn’t too bad outdoors at all.  There is another cold front coming our way for the weekend, and winds will be ramping up to around 40 mph once again.  I’m hoping that this will be the last of the blustery weather.  Today is the first day of meteorological winter, which is what I go…

Strong Winds Will Be The Issue Today – Mid Michigan

Strong Winds Will Be The Issue Today – Mid Michigan

We are under a high wind warning until 10 pm, with gusts as high as 45 mph possible.  This is from the cold front which arrived overnight and caused tornadoes and much wind damage in the south.  The winds will be with us through the weekend, from what I understand.  There is more warm air heading our way, followed by another cold front, which will keep things unstable for a while.   That’s normal for November.  Thursday is my shopping day,…
