Damp And Chilly In Mid Michigan

Damp And Chilly In Mid Michigan

We had rain all day Sunday.  It ranged from light sprinkles to heavy downpours.  We received a total of 1.51″ by the time it ended.  I’m sure the mosquitoes are happy.  Today has been a grey, damp day although no rain so far.  Our highs never made it out of the low 60s yesterday and today won’t be very warm either.  Tomorrow should bring back normal temps. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 64°F (18°C), the humidity is 82% and skies…

A Very Wet Sunday in Mid Michigan

A Very Wet Sunday in Mid Michigan

It started raining early this morning and has continued since then, with a few breaks.  There was 0.14 in in my gauge at 8:30 and I’m not sure how much more has fallen since then.  Radar shows that it may have a ways to go before it ends.  At least I won’t have to water anything for a few days. Our 1:45 PM temperature is 62°F (17°C), the humidity is 94%, and skies are overcast with moderate rain.  The pressure…

More Fine Weather For Mid Michigan

More Fine Weather For Mid Michigan

I almost hate bragging about our great weather when so much of the country is melting and dehydrating.  But I guess when you choose to live in parts of the country that have no winter weather, you have to accept the good with the bad.  As for me, I’ll gladly put up with a little snow to not deal with the summer extremes.  Also, I love the season changes.  Autumn is one of my favorites.  Right now, we have a…

A Nice Summer Day – Mid Michigan

A Nice Summer Day – Mid Michigan

As summer days go, it doesn’t get much nicer than what we have today.  Temperatures are comfortably warm and the humidity is also at a comfortable level.  You really can’t beat Michigan in the summer in terms of weather.  That’s why I’ll never live anywhere else. Our 3 PM temperature is 79°F, the humidity is 51%, and winds are from the NW at 2-8 mph.  The dew point is 57°F and the pressure is 29.92 in and steady.  Skies are…

Hot And Humid Today – Mid Michigan

Hot And Humid Today – Mid Michigan

  Today should be a fine day if you like “hot”.  Highs could reach near the 90 degree mark and that’s a little too warm for me.  There isn’t much breeze either, so very uncomfortable to those with no AC.  There is a possibility for some rain tonight but slight.  My husband got out early to mow the lawn before it got too hot.  Good idea.  With all the rain that we’ve been getting lately, it grows fast. Our 1:45…

A Few Morning Showers For Our Wednesday – Mid Michigan

A Few Morning Showers For Our Wednesday – Mid Michigan

Although we just had a slight chance of rain, one small cell managed to find us and we had a quick shower.  We only received 0.03″ from it, barely enough to matter, but enough to encourage the mosquitoes to hang around.  It should clear up by afternoon and temperatures will be on the rise.  Yesterday was another smoky day for us but today seems a bit better.  At least we can see the clouds and sun more clearly. Our 10:45…

Another Smoke Day In Mid Michigan

Another Smoke Day In Mid Michigan

Our sky has appeared cloudy all day, but yet the sun was shining although filtered.   We could barely see blue through the smoke filled sky, so it was difficult to tell if it was clouds or smoke.  I guess we can expect this to happen for the remaining summer and even autumn months.  I don’t think those Canadian fires will be put out until they get snow.  Hopefully, they’ll get a lot of it.  Other than that, it has been…

A Welcome Cool-Down For Mid Michigan

A Welcome Cool-Down For Mid Michigan

Today we are expecting highs to only reach the upper 70s and that’s fine with me.  Yesterday wasn’t too bad but quite humid.  Today, the humidity is much lower and it feels more comfortable.  It’s just a beautiful summer day.  We aren’t expecting any rain anytime soon, and we’re happy with what we have.  How quickly our drought conditions have waned. Our 2:30 PM temperature is 76°F (24°C), the humidity is 42% and skies are clear.  Winds are from the…

Nice Weather Following The Storms – Mid Michigan

Nice Weather Following The Storms – Mid Michigan

Yesterday was hot and humid, and storms developed late in the day.  We didn’t have anything severe, but there was a lot of thunder.  Most of it hit overnight and I slept through it, but my husband said that it woke him up.  There was 0.51 inches in my gauge this morning and light rain continued for awhile.  Now the clouds are breaking up, there’s a nice breeze from the north, and I think we can give the AC a…
