I have to say that the weather service really blew it yesterday.  Our forecast called for light snow with accumulations of less than an inch.  We got three.  I measured 8.75 inches on the ground this mo […]

It feels mild this morning compared to yesterday.  Temps have been on the rise all night.   Snow is falling at this time although we aren’t expecting much accumulation today.  It’s just enough to make the ro […]

Yesterday brought moderate to heavy snow all day to Mid Michigan.  We received 6.8 inches here of new snow leaving us with 8-9 inches of snow cover.  There were many serious accidents closing I-69 from D […]

The snow began falling shortly before 8 AM this morning and has continued since.  A winter storm warning is in effect until midnight with 5-8 inches expected.  All of the snow enthusiasts are ecstatic.   As […]

Although my area only received about 1.5 – 2 inches of new snow, counties to our south received as much as 6 inches.  Snow continues to be in the forecast but no significant accumulations are expected.  It w […]

There is no letup in the below normal temps for us until the weekend.  Our weather continues with roller coaster temperatures such as we have had most of the year.  It is either much warmer or colder than n […]

Saturday brought us light intermittent snow showers resulting in an inch of snow cover this morning.  We could see a little more this afternoon but no significant amounts are expected.  There is just e […]

Our morning seems nice and bright with the newly fallen snow.  We only have 1/2 inch on the ground, but it does a lot for making the day seem brighter.  I really do like snow this time of the year.  With ou […]

Although my area only received a trace of snow overnight,  it was a different story for northern Michigan.  With lake effect snow squalls moving over the state most of  Wednesday, there was a range of di […]

I am so tired of wind!  We had gusts up to 50 mph yesterday and many areas lost power.  The northern part of the state has been under a winter storm warning since yesterday and that will continue until 5 PM t […]

After a very warm Monday, a line of showers moved through the state early this morning bringing falling temperatures and a little rain.  There was only 0.04″ in my gauge this morning, but wind will be our […]

We better enjoy today’s mild temperatures because they won’t be around much longer.  A strong cold front will be moving in from Canada and we will be doing well to see highs above freezing by the week’s […]

I’m afraid that our nice autumn weather will be coming to an end this week.  The extended forecast is showing highs not much above freezing by week’s end.  Meteorological winter began on Dec. 1 and it’s r […]

We have a beautiful morning for our start of December.  This month is often the turn-around month for our autumn to winter weather.  November will usually still be quite mild, but December can be either mild o […]

This morning is dark and wet with showers moving in about 8 AM.  Radar is showing that the rain won’t last long and skies should be clearing later this morning.  It shouldn’t be too bad of a day.  Highs wi […]

Local meteorologists were saying that new records were set yesterday regarding high temps, but I have found different data.  The high in Flint was 66°F but we didn’t get quite that warm here where I am.  I li […]

Our Tuesday is starting out with plenty of sun but strong winds.  Temperatures are expected to be above normal for the next 10 days or so, and just a few rainy periods thrown in the mix.  Since most of N […]

The extended forecast for the next 10 days is calling for temperatures above normal once again.  So this pattern seems to be continuing right into December.  I love it.  I’m not ready for winter weather ye […]
