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 […]

Looking at the radar last night, I was certain that everything would be wet this morning.  It didn’t happen.  It managed to fall apart just before reaching my area.  I’m seeing rain right now approaching but it do […]

This weather has been wonderful.  There were a few storms that popped up yesterday afternoon which clouded our skies for a few hours, but they fell apart before reaching us.  We went from flooded lawns and f […]

It seemed like summer would never get here, but now it has and it’s wonderful.  The past two days have been sunny with low humidity.  Even though highs were in the low 80s, it was comfortable without the AC o […]

If you like summer weather, this week is perfect.  We have clear skies, low humidity and dew points, and temperatures at a very comfortable level.  I’m wishing that I were at the campground up north.  We’ll be go […]

Yesterday was another where we had pop-up storms but they all managed to miss us.  The few that did form caused quite a bit of damage but thankfully, they were small and only affected small areas.  We still have a […]

There is a cold front approaching the state which spawned some pretty powerful thunderstorms yesterday.  Fortunately, we were spared and didn’t even get a drop here.   More are in the forecast for today with mu […]

Last night, we kept hearing noises that sounded like thunder, but there were no storms appearing near us on radar.  Others  had reported hearing these also.   I did see a few flashes of lightning way off i the dis […]
