We could actually see the sun rise this morning in spite of many clouds, but since then, our sky has completely cleared up.  Unfortunately, it’s not going to last, but at least we know that the sun still […]

We had light snow showers most of our Sunday which left about an inch of snow cover.  A little melted but we still have enough to brighten our day.  I’m hearing that we could see a little sun later and that w […]

TEMPERATURES
December 2022 at Portland’s three official stations reported Average Temperature Departures-from-Normal ranging from -2.6° at the Portland International Airport (PDX) to -3.8° at the Portland N […]

It actually seems good to see everything covered in white this morning.  We don’t have much snow, under an inch, but enough to brighten up the landscape and get rid of the dreariness.  We have about half an inch a […]

Our weather has been redundant and is getting very boring.  We did have snow flurries most of Friday but barely enough to be seen on bare surfaces.   A snow system is expected on Wednesday but no one is saying ho […]

We received 0.21″ of rain overnight but now we just have dreary skies.  The rain seems to be over for now but more is in the forecast for tonight.  Our temperatures will continue to be mild until another arctic b […]

There was hope for a little sun this morning, and for a while, the sky was almost completely clear.  Unfortunately, it didn’t last very long.  But some sun is better than none.  Right?  Today is expected to be dry […]

Yesterday became cloudy with rain developing in the late afternoon.   It ended right around midnight and we only received 0.12″.  This morning began with fog and cloudy skies.  It hasn’t improved much since the […]

It was nice and bright this morning, but now clouds have moved in.  Rain is in the forecast for later this afternoon and tonight.  At least it’s rain and not snow.  Our weather continues to be mild.  Unf […]

After almost a week of gloom, we finally have clear skies.  But with that came very cold temperatures.  It was only 12F when I got up this morning.  We should see a substantial warm-up later but temps will pr […]

Just another gloomy day in mid Michigan, but seeing the sun the past two days was lovely.  We have rain in our forecast for today but nothing so far.  In fact, all the rain yesterday stayed to our south.   We are […]

Local forecasters told us to enjoy the sun yesterday because today would be cloudy once again.  Well, they were partially right.  We have had sunshine all morning although there is a thin layer of clouds also.  I’ […]

What a difference a day with sunlight makes!  Our local station is already warning us to enjoy it because tomorrow will be cloudy once again.  I can’t remember the last time that we saw the sun but it’s been at l […]

We were supposed to see a little sun today but so far, it’s a no-show.  Also, temperatures aren’t rising very fast either, and we are far from our expected high today.  It looks like this will be just another b […]

Our weather pattern has become stagnant, but we should see some changes beginning tomorrow.  I don’t think we’ll see much if any sun today, but it would be nice to see a little clearing later.  The past four d […]

Since Christmas, the storm track has shifted south to California, bringing heavy rain and mountain snow to the Golden State. Parts of the Sierra Nevada have seen over 20 inches of liquid-equivalent precipitation, […]

Yesterday brought us a mix of rain and snow which became mostly snow as the day wore on.  It did leave a light covering which has melted since then.  Today is just damp and chilly, but temperatures are still a […]

Today is damp and cold, a typical dreary January day.  We’ve been having a mix of rain and snow since this morning, but not enough to measure.  At least there isn’t much wind to make it even more miserable.  I’ […]

Today is foggy once again, and it (the fog) doesn’t seem to be going anywhere.  Visibility is less than a mile and we have had intermittent rain showers most of the morning.  Radar is showing most of the rain to b […]

Happy New Year everyone!  The calendar has shifted from 2022 to 2023, and it’s time for a quick review of the past year’s biggest weather events.  Of course our calendar system is very arbitrary and a […]
