Our morning is beginning with showers and mild temperatures.  There was 0.27″ in my gauge and light rain continues.  It appears that this will be a wet weekend with the possibility of strong thunderstorms t […]

I have been gone the past three days to our campground in Topinabee.  I usually blog from there but they were in the process of installing a new WiFi system in the park, so I had no internet to work with.  The w […]

It isn’t supposed to be like this on Mother’s Day.  It’s supposed to be warm, sunny, and very pleasant to be outdoors.  But no!  It isn’t that way at all.  This has really been a crummy spring for us.  All we seem […]

Today should be an okay day although still much cooler than it what it should be.  At least there isn’t any rain in the forecast.  Highs should be reaching the mid 60s by now and Mother Nature doesn’t seem to w […]

Yesterday was not a bad day.  We had some rain early, but the afternoon was mostly dry.  There were a few more pop up showers overnight but the day was far from a wash out.  Highs reached into the 70s and that wa […]

We have had just a few sprinkles of rain so far this morning, but the radar is showing a large area of rain approaching us from the southwest.  It looks like most will be over by early afternoon unless more […]

We are all wishing for some weather than feels like spring but it is having a very hard time arriving this year.  I am starting to wonder if our whole summer will be like this.  The sun is out this morning but c […]

We are planning our first trip up north early next week and I’m really hoping that this rain will be done by then. Yesterday wasn’t the wash-out that we thought it would be.  In fact, the rain didn’t begin until […]

Today should be a winner with perfect weather for this time of year.  The sun is out, skies are clear and humidity is low with no rain in the forecast.  I have to get outdoors today. Maybe I’ll work on my flower b […]

Well, the rain is expected to be over for a few days, and this weekend should be very nice if the forecasts are correct.  Right now it is cloudy but temperatures are mild and we should see the low to mid 60s […]

Radar is showing that the rain has moved well to our southeast and it appears to be over.  These past several days have been very wet and the Detroit area has been declared a disaster area because of flooding, […]

The rain ended early yesterday and we even say a few glimpses of the sun.  This morning we have cloudy skies with a little fog.  Highs should reach the low 60s and showeres are a possibility this afternoon.  So […]

Maybe we should be happy that we aren’t getting severe weather but this much rain causes flooding which can be as bad.  Many roads in the Detroit area are flooded as they got almost 2 inches overnight.  We r […]

We received a little under half an inch of rain yesterday and we have much more heading out way.  Our temperatures are about 10 degrees lower than where they should be for this date and we aren’t expecting any […]

We have rain in our forecast for everyday this week.  Saturday’s snow event turned into a fizzle.  They predicted 3-4 inches for my area and it all came as rain, and not much at that.  We were all quite ha […]

Looking outdoors this morning, no one would suspect that we have a snowstorm on the way for tonight.  The sun is out and flowers are blooming.  There is a brisk wind blowing, however, giving us a warning of what i […]

We had rain closing in on us from the southeast and the northwest late yesterday, but none of it reached my area.  I see that the Detroit area received some pretty heavy amounts on the CoCoRahs reports this […]

It seems that we just can’t get away from these cold temperatures.  We get a few “teaser” days, then back to March weather.  I guess that we better enjoy today and tomorrow because the remainder of the week will s […]

This last two days were wonderful with plenty of sun and very warm temps.  Today will be more normal with highs only in the mid 60s.  We had a little rain overnight which left 0.05″ in my gauge.  The forecast st […]

I don’t have all of my screen on the windows yet and I think I’ll regret it today.  The latest forecast is calling for highs in the mid to upper 70s.  Yesterday was a gorgeous day with our high reaching 73° on my […]
