It started raining yesterday afternoon and has continued through this morning.  So far, we have received 1.33″ and it’s still coming down.  To make matters worse, my dog, Cinnamon, has injured her back and has l […]

I can’t ever remember a period when it rains every day like it has this spring.  It just won’t quit!  We were supposed to have 3-4 days of dry weather this week and that has already changed to a chance of rain a […]

Looking at the radar, it appears that most of the rain is right over my area,.  Fortunately, it isn’t large so I don’t think that it will last too long.  Regardless, we don’t need anymore rain.  None of the fa […]

It seems like my blogs are quite redundant with the same conditions almost everyday.  Rain, rain, rain.  I must admit that yesterday was mostly dry but there were a few drops in my gauge this morning.  Most of th […]

This morning is sunny and beautiful, but unfortunately, it won’t last long.  More showers are in the forecast for tonight.  I guess we’ll just enjoy the sun while we have it  It will be breezy today so maybe th […]

Most of us are wondering if summer will ever happen this year.  Once again we have temperatures much below normal, and it seems that the rain will never stop.  We received another quarter of an inch overnight.  We […]

Tuesday was beautiful, both in Northern Michigan and lower portions of the state.  We drove home yesterday and had to detour around one road which had been washed out by Sunday’s storms.  There is more rain in t […]

After the clouds cleared away yesterday, it turned into quite a nice day.  The morning was cold, windy, and damp, but the sky began to clear about 5 PM and the evening was very pleasant.  We took advantage of it a […]

Yesterday began with a little sun and very mild temperatures.  Then the rains came around mid afternoon, becoming very heavy by nightfall.  I don’t have a rain gauge here but I know that what we received had to b […]

It isn’t sounding like the next few days will be very nice.  Rain is supposed to move in tonight and continue through tomorrow.   I’m just hoping that it isn’t a wash out.  Last night was a busy one here at the […]

We are blessed with another beautiful morning and the campground has really filled up.  People were coming in droves last night and there was a lot of activity for a change.  It will be this way now until S […]

We arrived here at the campground on Wednesday and the weather has been wonderful.  Although a bit on the chilly side, at least the sun is shining.  We went down to the In law’s cabins yesterday and Lake Huron w […]

Our morning sky is clear but a grayish tint is visible.  There are wild fires in northwestern Canada that are causing this.  Regardless, it is a beautiful morning and the temperatures are rising quickly. H […]

Today looks to be a nice day although a bit too chilly.  Highs are still  much below where they should be but we’ll definitely take the sun.  Yesterday was  quite nice with sun all day except for a brief clo […]

We received storm after storm on Saturday with severe thunderstorm warnings frequently issued.  They mainly passed over without consequence in my  area but dropped 1.27″ of rain in all.  Watching the radar, ma […]

Predictions are for highs in the upper 70s today with sun.  That has been a rarity lately and it seemed like the rain would never end.  As for our temperatures, we’ll see if they are right today.  Lately, the pr […]

It seems like we are never going to warm up this year.  Temperatures can’t even make it to the predicted highs.  We were suppose to reach 70° yesterday and my thermometer only read 63° as the warmest.  Tues […]

The weather this month has been very unseasonable for us.  Usually May brings warm temps and sunny skies.  This year, it has seemed more like April.  We have had way too much rain and very few days where the hi […]

My prayers go out for those in Ohio who spent a night of terror Monday,  as tornadoes and severe storms spread across the state.  Our Memorial Day was quite nice with sun in the early hours, becoming cloudy l […]

Our Monday is beginning with plenty of sun, light breezes and warm temperatures.  It couldn’t be any nicer.  My kids were all home for the weekend and it was my younger son’s birthday, so we were busy all w […]
