Wednesday turned hot and humid under partly cloudy skies with late afternoon/early evening storm threats. Storms just to my west in northern VA looked like a sure thing as they were moving east towards my […]

Although my area was spared from any severe weather yesterday, the Bay City, Midland, and thumb areas weren’t so lucky.  There were various funnel clouds spotted resulting in tornado warnings but I haven’t heard […]

Tuesday turned partly cloudy with quite a bit of sun, warming things up into the mid 80s after a fairly pleasant early AM in the mid 60s. Dew point temps remained mostly in the 60s all day, highest mid-morning […]

Meteorological summer (June through August) is over and that means we have lots of fun new data to pour through! This summer ended up being a mixed bag. We didn’t experience as extreme of heat as usual, but our […]

Today began with cloudy skies and now the rain has moved in.  Temps are expected to reach the mid 80s this afternoon and they have a ways to go if that’s going to happen.  Temperatures should remain very warm f […]

Monday turned mostly cloudy, particularly in the AM hours, with some spotty drizzle/light showers around but none recorded at my location, cool in the early hours of the day but warming to just above 80 by […]

This morning is dark and dreary with a few stray raindrops adding to the mix.  The forecast is calling for a little sun this afternoon and I hope that it happens.  The days are becoming noticeably shorter and it i […]

I really did have remarkably similar statistics today compared with yesterday, same high temperature, very close dew point and relative humidity values, and similar partly cloudy, dry conditions. I had plenty of […]

Today will only see high temps in the upper 60s, but with the sun, it shouldn’t be too bad of a day.  Fall is really in the air and we can see a few trees beginning to show a little color  There is no rain in t […]

Now that we finally cleared Dorian out of our area, we had a pretty nice Saturday, a bit warmer with a lot more sun with just fair-weather cumulus dotting the sky at times (see today’s featured image) and a bit […]

Yesterday was damp and cool with our high not even reaching 70°.  We had a rain shower, which left 0.23″ in my rain gauge, around noon.  The remainder of the day was cloudy with very few peeks of the sun.  I don […]

Finally Friday was the day that Hurricane Dorian paid our area a visit, albeit quite a mild one. Clouds from the outermost bands of Dorian kept us cool and breezy through mid-afternoon, then as it moved off to the […]

Our day started out with clouds, and rain was showing on radar, but I thought that it would stay to our north.  My son had a procedure done at the hospital this morning, and when we were ready to leave, it was […]

Thursday was quite a changeable day as Hurricane Dorian inched northward along the East Coast, with its initial outermost bands of circulation entered our region today (see today’s featured image). Skies were […]

The storms that were predicted on Tuesday never happened, at least not in my area.  I haven’t heard of any damage reports so I think that the severity was a false alarm.  That happens a lot in weather predicting h […]

Wednesday was partly sunny, significantly warmer and more humid, still dry though isolated showers did fall in parts of the region, though nothing fell at my station. The morning started out with a stratus […]
