Still Dreary And Damp In Mid Michigan

Still Dreary And Damp In Mid Michigan

Yesterday brought us intermittent rain showers which became heavier as the day wore on.  There was 0.19″ in my gauge this morning, and looking at the CoCoRahs reports this morning, most stations in southern Michigan recorded more than that.  We are seeing a little more color everyday, and peak color isn’t expected for a few more weeks yet.  These cloudy skies don’t appear to be going anywhere in the next few days, but the weekend is expected to be nice. …

A Damp, Gloomy Day In Mid Michigan

We haven’t received any significant rainfall in the past 24 hours, but rain is still in our forecast.  Fine weather is expected to return for the weekend and that’s always a good thing.  We could even see temperatures near 80 degrees once again.  But for today, we won’t even make it to 70 degrees. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 62°F (17°C), the humidity is 88%, and skies are overcast.  Winds are from the E at 3-6 mph and the dew…

We had clouds most of yesterday, then a little rain late in the afternoon.  It didn’t amount to much, but by this morning there was 0.23″ in my rain gauge.  Showers and a possible thundershower are in the forecast for today, so it doesn’t sound like there will be much going on outdoors today.  At least the temperatures are mild. Our 10 AM temperature is 63°F (17°C), the humidity is 95% and skies are overcast.  Winds are from the NE…

  Once again, we have warm temps and plenty of sunshine.  Unfortunately, I’ve picked up some sort of bug and am not feeling very good.  At least the sun brightens my spirits.  This weather has been gorgeous and it’s expected to last a while longer.  It just doesn’t get any better than this for late September. Our 1:30 PM temperature is 72°F (22°C), the humidity is 60%, and winds are from the ENE at 1-5 mph.  Skies are clear and…

The Start Of A Nice Weekend – Mid Michigan

The Start Of A Nice Weekend – Mid Michigan

We have the beginning of a sunny and warm weekend.  What great weather for that late season camping trip or anything else that you want to do.  Again, there is no rain in our forecast although areas north of us had some quick showers yesterday afternoon.  I’ve given up on my gardens for the year, so they’ll just have to rely on the next rainy day to survive.  With this cooler weather and high dew points, they don’t dry out…

Summer-Like Weather Continues For Mid Michigan

Summer-Like Weather Continues For Mid Michigan

We have yet another very warm, dry day.  Again, no rain in our forecast but the clouds look like some rain could develop.  I’m happy for this dry period.  Maybe the grass will quit growing and some of these mosquitoes will go away.  They seem to be worse when the lawn gets long.  I’m noticing that I’m not getting many birds at my feeders lately.  I haven’t seen a hummingbird now for about five days, but I’ll  keep the feeder…

A Little Warmer For Mid Michigan

    We can expect the temperatures to be on the rise over the next few days and it will feel like summer once again.  We are starting to see a little color in the trees and bushes, and the hours of daylight are noticeably less.  Soon it will be Halloween, then Thanksgiving and Christmas.  This year is passing by much too quickly. Our 10 AM temperature is 65°F (18°C), the humidity is 78%, and skies are cloudy.  Winds are…

A Cloudy Okay Day In Mid Michigan

A Cloudy Okay Day In Mid Michigan

What started out sunny, has now become cloudy and chilly.  It felt nice when the sun was shining, but now a jacket or sweater is needed if one is going to be outdoors.  There wasn’t any rain in our forecast but I’m seeing some showers on radar in the southern portions of the state.  Our sky looks like it could drop a few rain drops, but nothing so far.  They have added the possibility of rain in our forecast although…
