We have light rain this morning which is expected to end by the afternoon.  The weekend looks great with sun and mild temperatures.  Then we are told that it will get hot next week, with an extended period of 80 d […]

We had light to moderate rain all day on Tuesday leaving us with 0.69 in total.  Skies remained cloudy all morning and have become partly cloudy since then.  Forecasts are calling for a major warm-up next week, w […]

We get one nice day, then a bunch of cloudy, cold days.  Temperatures are in the 50s, so I guess you can’t really call that cold, but it sure isn’t where it ought to be for early May.  I should be out cleaning o […]

After a dreary, cold, damp Saturday, our Sunday is turning out much better.  We had fog and a little drizzle this morning, but now the sky is showing signs of clearing, and we are getting a few peeks at the […]

On April 29, 2022, the temperature dropped to 32°F. at Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI), breaking the daily record of 33° from way back in 1874. This also established the 3rd l […]

Although our temperatures aren’t where they should be, it still has been a very nice morning.  There was a frost but since nothing is planted yet, there was no harm done.  The early spring flowers, which are in b […]

It is now 1:30 pm and our temperatures haven’t even made it into the 40s yet.  I don’t think that they are going to.  Highs today are expected to reach the low 40s, and if the sun comes out, it just may h […]

Compared to the last few days, today is miserable.  It is cold, damp, and windy.  We have had a few periods of sprinkles but no significant rainfall today.  We had a little rain yesterday but the temps were mu […]

Yesterday was another very warm although windy day.  Storms didn’t arrive until the evening, and we did receive a lot of rain but nothing severe.  There was a total of 1.10″ in my gauge this morning.  Today fe […]

Today’s weather was a real treat with highs reaching the low 80s.  We had sun all day with a few scattered clouds here and there.  Clouds are on the increase now with possible showers moving in late tomorrow.  We […]

Although we have rain in the forecast for this afternoon and tonight, this morning is lovely with plenty of sun and mild temperatures.  Our daily highs have been a bit below average but this weekend will make up […]

It seems that our cold, unseasonable weather is leaving us and we can look forward to some real spring-like weather.  Temps should reach well into the 50s today, and everyday this week will continue to get a […]

Last week was a very interesting pattern, given the season.  We had a full week of “Winter In April” weather – including a historic April snowstorm for Portland/Vancouver and temperatures more typical of late […]

Our Easter Sunday was quite nice.  There was some cloud cover  in the early afternoon, but we had sun most of the day.  Temperatures were a bit chilly but not as bad as today.  It feels more like late March tha […]

Our Friday was very blustery and cold.  Hopefully, the winds won’t be as bad today and we will have more sun.  Temperatures are not expected to rise out of the mid 40s, but that won’t be too bad if it’s sunny a […]

Yesterday was very windy with gusts close to 50 mph in parts of the state.  Today isn’t quite as windy but still expecting gusts close to 40 mph.  Skies were clear early but now the sky is filled with clouds o […]

Having watched the weather happening in all the states south of us yesterday, Michigan lucked out once again.  There were many tornadoes, as well as severe storms which produced damaging winds and large hail, and […]

After a very nice Tuesday, today probably will not be very pleasant.  We could be in line for some pretty hefty storms this afternoon and tonight.  Yesterday brought, what has become, a weekly rash of tornadoes f […]

Wow!  After an incredible 79-degree afternoon Thursday (75 at PDX), we have flipped the seasonal switch, going from June to February in just three days. Today’s high of 46 at PDX was the coldest April day in 19 […]

Yes – the rumors are true. There is a chance of lowland snow tonight into Monday morning for Southwest Washington and Northwest Oregon. Some spots over Washington have already seen some snow showers this m […]
