We never did get our sunshine yesterday.  It peeked out a couple of times for about 15 seconds, and that was it.  Someone once told me that the Lansing, MI area is one of the cloudiest places in the US, and I […]

We have overcast skies once again but we should see a little sun later, if the local weather gurus are correct.  It shouldn’t be too bad of a day with fairly mild temps and light winds.  Seeing the sun would d […]

I doesn’t look like we will get much, if any sun today.  At least no rain is in our forecast, and tomorrow is supposed to be mostly sunny.  We did get some rain late yesterday and overnight, but only 0.15″ w […]

After a cloudy, wet Saturday, we are blessed with a little sun this morning.  Skies are mostly cloudy but just enough breaks in the clouds to let us know that the sun is alive and well.  We had light rain m […]

It rained most of the night after yesterday’s intermittent sprinkles.  There was a little over half an inch in my gauge at 8:30, and it’s been raining since then.  We have continued light rain at this time a […]

It isn’t a very nice day at all.  Radar is showing a lot of rain over us and still more coming.  None of it is heavy, just enough to be miserable.  I wouldn’t mind it if it was just warmer.  Our tem […]

We have dense fog to deal with this morning.  There was a little water in my rain gauge but I’m sure it was just condensation.  I’m seeing sun trying to appear through the fog so I think it will burn off q […]

After a drizzly day on Tuesday, today was supposed to be much better.  It looks like the sun is trying to shine but still too many clouds in the way.  It was supposed to be partly cloudy this afternoon, and i […]

Today will be another chilly and gloomy day.  Rain is in the forecast but haven’t seen any yet.  This is more like November weather so maybe we’ll get our October weather in November this year.  Regardless, it […]

Today feels just plain cold.  Not only is the high much below normal, but we have a strong wind to go with it.  At least the sun is out today, but we have more rain expected for tomorrow and every day the r […]

To look out the window, it looks like a very nice day, but when you step outdoors, it isn’t as nice as it looks.  It is very windy and many of the leaves are blowing off the trees.  That’s going to take a l […]

Yesterday began with sun, but ended with moderate rain showers.  We received another 0.25″ of rain and the temperatures were dropping as the day went on.  Today will be much colder with highs only expected t […]

We had rain all day Thursday, which finally ended early last night.  In all, we had 1.35″ of rainfall.  Today is looking better but there is still a chance that we could have a few more raindrops.  The sky is […]

We woke this morning to a very wet scenario.  There was 0.42″ in my gauge at 8:30, so I know that it had rained most of the night.  We continue to have a steady rain and we can expect this to last most of t […]

Today will be the last summer-like day, possibly for the year.  Oh sure, we could see the 70s again but I doubt that it will reach the mid 80s anymore.  Being Michigan however, one never knows.  Today will st […]

We are seeing temperatures in the mid 80s today.  That’s 20 degrees above where it should be, but who’s complaining?  Besides that, the humidity is low so it’s very comfortable.  Skies are completely clear an […]

These will be our final days of temps in the 80s, at least for now anyway.  I’m hoping that it will still happen again before the end of October, but I’m happy with the 70s also.  Regardless, we will c […]

I hope that most of October is like this weather-wise.  It’s absolutely beautiful with above average temps and plenty of sun.  Our temperatures are expected to be warm the remainder of this week, and we c […]

Once again, we have fog.  This is common for Michigan this time of year.  We can see the sun peeking through and I’m sure that it will clear up by noon.  Today begins a period of summer-like weather which is […]

We are supposed to see a little sun this afternoon, but so far, it hasn’t made an appearance.  It’ll probably clear up at sundown.  But no matter, tomorrow is supposed to be beautiful.  We could even see 80 de […]
