The rain began late yesterday afternoon, then became heavy overnight.  There was 1.37″ in my rain gauge this morning, and rain continued today until early afternoon.  A flood watch is in effect.  Radar is st […]

Our cooler weather continues for the next few days before the next hot spell moves in.  Personally, I love this weather.  It’s perfect as far as I’m concerned.  One can go outdoors and enjoy it without ge […]

We had a few quicky showers early yesterday which left 0.03″ in my rain gauge.  It rained quite hard but only lasted a few minutes.  Other than that, our Saturday was mostly sunny and nice.  Today will br […]

Although we had no severe weather yesterday, we did have a few thunderstorms that passed over giving us 0.45″ of rainfall.  Other areas weren’t as lucky.  Perry, a small town about 15 miles to our southwest, w […]

Right now, the storms are remaining well to our north, but NOAA is giving us a 70% chance for them to reach our area later this afternoon.  Some could be heavy with small hail and strong winds, but nothing […]

Our forecast is calling for only a slight chance of rain, but looking at the sky, it looks like some storms may be brewing.  It won’t be as warm today and the humidity isn’t as high.  So far it’s been mostly s […]

We had a popup thundershower yesterday evening which dropped 0.16″ of rain on us.  It was just a small cell which formed just to our northwest, and it moved right over us.  It didn’t last very long, and fell a […]

Today is sunny and temperatures and humidity are at a comfortable level.  We couldn’t ask for anything better.  The forecast is saying that we could see some rain this afternoon but that remains to be s […]

We had rain all day Sunday.  It ranged from light sprinkles to heavy downpours.  We received a total of 1.51″ by the time it ended.  I’m sure the mosquitoes are happy.  Today has been a grey, damp day alt […]

It started raining early this morning and has continued since then, with a few breaks.  There was 0.14 in in my gauge at 8:30 and I’m not sure how much more has fallen since then.  Radar shows that it may h […]

I almost hate bragging about our great weather when so much of the country is melting and dehydrating.  But I guess when you choose to live in parts of the country that have no winter weather, you have to […]

As summer days go, it doesn’t get much nicer than what we have today.  Temperatures are comfortably warm and the humidity is also at a comfortable level.  You really can’t beat Michigan in the summer in t […]

Today should be a fine day if you like “hot”.  Highs could reach near the 90 degree mark and that’s a little too warm for me.  There isn’t much breeze either, so very uncomfortable to those with no AC […]

Although we just had a slight chance of rain, one small cell managed to find us and we had a quick shower.  We only received 0.03″ from it, barely enough to matter, but enough to encourage the mosquitoes to […]

Our sky has appeared cloudy all day, but yet the sun was shining although filtered.   We could barely see blue through the smoke filled sky, so it was difficult to tell if it was clouds or smoke.  I guess we […]

Today has been dry and temperatures are comfortable with a light breeze.  There were a few showers that sprung up yesterday but none of them affected us.  Skies look like a few more could spring up today but n […]

Today we are expecting highs to only reach the upper 70s and that’s fine with me.  Yesterday wasn’t too bad but quite humid.  Today, the humidity is much lower and it feels more comfortable.  It’s just a be […]

Yesterday was hot and humid, and storms developed late in the day.  We didn’t have anything severe, but there was a lot of thunder.  Most of it hit overnight and I slept through it, but my husband said that i […]

Today is one of the hottest that we’ve had this summer.  Also the humidity is a factor which makes it worse.  I feel for those who still don’t have electricity due to the storms on Wednesday.  More storms ar […]

Yesterday was quite active on the weather scene.  Thunderstorms moved in during the early afternoon and continued for about 5 hours.  There were periods of severe watches and warnings, but we had none of t […]
