There was only supposed to be a slight chance of rain for today but that has already changed.  Now it looks like there will be a good change for rain almost all day.  Hurricane Dorian has become a category 5 s […]

The New Lothrop tornado was first evaluated as an EF0.  I think that it will be more like an EF2 after all assessments are done.  There is every bit as much damage as what was done by the March 20th tornado that s […]

There were a line of thunderstorms which crossed over the state from the northwest late yesterday leaving 0.62″ of rain in my gauge.  Severe TS warnings were issued well into the storm and by that time we could […]

We should see highs near 80° today, then another cool down.  I received an alert from one of my weather apps that severe weather is possible for my area tonight.  The high school football season is starting to […]

Local meteorologists are saying that this cool down will probably be permanent, and temperatures reaching into the 80s will be few and far between.  I’m hoping that they’re wrong although I love the 70s.  This h […]

I’m loving this cool weather.  It’s just perfect for opening the windows and airing out the house.  Highs today should reach the mid to upper 70s and a nice breeze.  It just doesn’t get any better than th […]

Our lows last night fell into the 40s in some areas which is really cool for this date.  Right now, it is only 71°F and I don’t think it will get much warmer as the day goes on.  It’s even too chilly to open th […]

We had an uneventful drive home yesterday after a week of very nice weather up north.  Conditions there are very dry and they really need rain, but we were happy that the week saw very little while we were […]

I can’t believe how quickly this past week has gone.  Our weather has been much nicer than at home.  It was quite stormy in southern Michigan once again with various severe storm warnings issued.  It seems, ho […]

We had another beautiful day on Monday here at our campground.  There was a nice breeze and temperatures were just right.  I didn’t even need the AC until late in the day.  Our new trailer has a lot of windows wh […]

After a stormy Sunday in much of the state, our Monday is beginning with cool temperatures and plenty of sun.  We received a few quick showers on Sunday but that was all.  The Detroit area had quite a few heavy s […]

The Weather Service is already warning us that this could be a very stormy day.  There are already storms moving into the state from the southwest and some watches have been issued.  They are saying that there i […]

Yesterday was gorgeous until the late evening when rain moved in from the southwest.  We didn’t get any here at camp until about 9:30 PM, then overnight.  I’m not sure how much but I’m guessing about 0.10″.  Sk […]

Our drive up to camp was quite wet as we ran into off and on showers all the way up.  By the time we reached Indian River, it was dry.  At least we didn’t have to set up in the rain.  This morning, however, is ve […]

We were supposed to get a good rain last night, and as usual, we didn’t get a drop.  It all “trained” through the southern part of the state and we remain high and dry.  Some areas near Detroit got up to 4 i […]

We have significant rain in our forecast for later today and tonight.  I hope it happens.  We haven’t had a good rain in about a month with every storm just missing us.  This forecast seems quite hopeful th […]

We have a couple of very warm days to deal with before the next cold front moves in.  Highs today are expected to reach the low to  mid 80s once again, but then cooler air will come for the week’s end.  Rain ha […]

I can’t say enough about our weather lately.  It’s been gorgeous.  We didn’t have to turn on the AC at all yesterday as there was a nice breeze all day and temps in the upper 70s.  Oh, how I wish this could la […]

It seem that our weather has suddenly gone from summer to almost autumn.  We had one month of real summer weather and now it feels like fall is in the air.  The days are getting shorter and some schools ar […]

It seems like everyone but us got some rain yesterday, even though it wasn’t very much.  Our lawn is brown and nothing is growing but the weeds.  It does seem good that it’s staying short for awhile.  Our next re […]
