Yesterday was an unbelievable day of severe storms and tornadoes throughout the mid-section of the US.  It began fairly early in the afternoon, and continued throughout the night.  We had just a nice summer-type t […]

We woke to moderate rain this morning and it has continued since then.  There was 0.29″ in my rain gauge at 8:30. Temperatures will be quite warm today giving us a small chance for severe weather tonight.  T […]

Tomorrow is expected to be another stormy day with large areas of the midwest and south expecting more tornadoes and strong severe storms.  As for us, we could see showers and maybe a few thunderstorms, but at […]

We are having snow showers this morning which are barely covering the ground.  I’m sure that it will melt very quickly and we aren’t expecting much accumulation.  We have another storm system heading our way for t […]

We began the day with clear skies, but now it has become mostly cloudy.  Winds are light and it feels quite warm.  There is no precipitation in our forecast, so outdoor activities today are definitely a g […]

After a gloomy, blustery weekend, our new week is beginning with sunshine and mild temperatures.  I think I’ll bring some outdoor furniture out on the deck today, since the weather looks pretty good over the next […]

Our morning began with clear skies, but now more clouds are rolling in.  It turned out to be a pretty nice day with light winds and temperatures in the 50s.  There is rain and snow in our forecast for tonight a […]

My condolences to the people of Mississippi who were victimized last night by devastating tornadoes.  I follow a couple of storm chasers on YouTube, and they were busy giving medical aid; transporting people to […]

It isn’t very warm today but light winds make it comfortable.  We received a little rain overnight but barely enough to get things wet.  Today has been cloudy but dry.  Tomorrow is expected to be a big mess wi […]

We received 0.24″ of rain overnight, and it has been dry since then.  It’s a bit of a dreary day but the temperature is mild and winds are light.  Not bad for being out and about.  They have even removed rain fr […]

After a lovely Tuesday, today won’t be quite as nice.  Although it is dry right now, we are expecting showers to move in later in the day.  Highs will still make it into the low 50s, and that should last through m […]

We have a sky full of clouds, but somehow, the sun has been out most of the morning.  We will see highs well into the 50s today, and it should be a very nice day.  I think I’ll take the dog out to run in the y […]

It is looking like a gorgeous day out there.  Temperatures will be warmer than what we have had, but the wind will still be a problem.  Most, if not all, of our snow is gone, but there are still a few stubborn s […]

Today will still be a bit chilly, but temperatures will continue to rise as the week goes on.  We should see highs in the 50s most of the week, and hopefully, that will rid us of the rest of this ice.  There are s […]

Today really feels like winter.  We are having off and on snow squalls which only last a few minutes,  but are heavy enough to affect visibility for those out driving.  We aren’t going to see much warming today an […]

We don’t have a very nice St. Paddy’s day here in Michigan.  Temperatures have been dropping since early this morning, and we are seeing light snow flurries.  The winds are brutal and it is not a nice day to b […]

We are expecting a good amount of rain for later today, tonight, and part of tomorrow.  I’m hoping that it will be warm enough to finally melt the large patch of ice that we have in our front yard.  Some has m […]

It warmed up enough yesterday to melt most of our snow.  We still have a few icy patches where the sun doesn’t shine, but the snow is gone.  We are expecting highs in the 50s the next few days and rain.  I’m ho […]

We had light snow showers all day on Monday but not much in accumulations.  Much of it melted but I estimate that we have about 1-2 inches of snow cover at this time.  Today will be a bit brighter and hopefully, w […]

I wasn’t expecting this much snow overnight, but regardless, here it is.  We had 1.3 inches at 8:30 this morning, and I know we’ve gotten another inch since then.  Light snow continues at this time.  We are su […]
