It is a rather yucky day and I expect that it will be raining most of it.  Temperatures are right around where they should be for this date, and winds are light.  Looks like we’ll be stuck indoors today so maybe I […]

The only thing that would make today better is if there were light winds.  Everything else is perfect.  Skies are clear and temps are in the mid 50s.  Our Thanksgiving weather was great but the remaining we […]

Our day began with clouds but fairly mild temperatures.  The radar overnight appeared to show rain passing over my area, but there was no sign of any this morning.  The air must have been too dry.  But now the sk […]

We couldn’t have a nicer day for our holiday meal.  My husband is cooking the turkey on the spit, something we’ve never tried before, so I hope it turns out well.  Unfortunately, there is a chance of rain later b […]

Our skies cleared yesterday and we lost most of our snow.  This morning was frosty but temperatures are expected to rise into the mid 40s this afternoon.  This will continue through Thanksgiving day, but then r […]

After a cloudy morning, the sun finally came out and skies are perfectly clear now.  Unfortunately, with it came very brisk winds.   Our total snow over the past 3 days was around 5 inches for my area, much be […]

This is our 4th day with snow and below average temperatures.  We have about 2 inches of snow cover with some ice.  We would have a lot more except there was quite a bit of thawing in spite of the cold t […]

We didn’t get the massive snow amounts that other areas did, but today will be miserable none the less.  We had lake effect snow showers for the past two days, but the ground is warm enough that much of it […]

We had intermittent snow showers all day Thursday, which increased in  intensity in the evening.  Most of the early snow melted on contact, but heavier showers later in the day started accumulating.  Radar is sh […]

At least we aren’t under a winter storm watch / warning like western and northern portions of our state.  We do, however, continue to have periodic snow showers.  Most of the snow has been melting since the g […]

We woke to a white world this morning with about an inch of snow on the ground.  Liquid measure was about 0.13″.  It’s a wet snow so it is sticking to all the tree branches.  Highs today will probably not make it […]

We were surprised this morning by a sudden snow squall.  It left about half an inch on the ground and was wet enough to stick to the trees.  It has stopped for now but I think that there is more on the way l […]

Today really looks and feels like November.  It is cold and temperatures are remaining in the upper 30s.  The high was supposed to reach 40°F today but I don’t think it’s going to make it.  At least it isn’t win […]

There isn’t much to say about today except that it’s cold and gloomy.  The forecast called for partly sunny but we haven’t seen much sun yet.  Highs aren’t even expected to reach the 40s, so it’s a drastic c […]

This morning began with clear skies but clouds have moved in since then.  It won’t be very warm today but otherwise not too bad.  At least we have no snow yet but I’m expecting that to happen very soon.  We co […]

Yesterday was another beautiful day here in mid Michigan.  Temps rose into the mid to upper 70s which broke many records.  We certainly did enjoy it and I was able to sleep with my window open for possibly the l […]

Although it’s a bit breezy, it is absolutely gorgeous outdoors.  This is amazing for November 10, and it will probably be the last where we would want to sit outdoors.  My husband is out doing some last minute c […]

Temperatures are a little cooler today but it is otherwise very nice.  Skies are mostly clear with a few clouds passing over, and winds are light to moderate.  Mother Nature just keeps giving us fine weather a […]

Although our temperatures are quite chilly today, at least we have clear skies and bright sun to help make it feel warmer.  It is a bit breezy but not a bad day at all.  We are expecting another very warm day on T […]

Yesterday’s blustery conditions resulted in an extraordinary sunset which drew a lot of attention from area photographers.  The picture above is just one, but there are many more on the Michigan weather group on […]
