We haven’t had any rain yet, but the radar is showing it getting very close.  The remainder of my flowers would greatly appreciate it.  Rain has been sparse this month, and that’s a bit strange for September in M […]

Southern portions of the state saw some  hefty thunderstorms overnight, but we weren’t that lucky.  I am seeing some lightning strikes on my weather station but all we got in rain was 0.01″. Some areas received u […]

We will have temperatures in the low to mid 80s these next few days, then I’m pretty sure they’ll be gone for the year.  But being Michigan, one never knows.  Today is beautiful with clear skies and just enough b […]

This morning is absolutely lovely but I’m hearing that big changes will be coming next week.  This weather can certainly spoil you, but we know what’s ahead.  I’m seeing changes in the foliage  with a little mo […]

Just when we think that the AC weather is over for the year, Mother Nature sends more hot air our way.  I’m not really complaining as long as it isn’t humid.  We also have a stretch of dry weather which is a bit u […]

Today is the first that we have noticed some of the trees having colored leaves.  It seems a bit late to me as we usually see this in late August.  But that’s a sure sign that autumn is really here.  Te […]

After a few very fall-like days, summer weather seems to be returning once again.  Temps will reach the 80s by the weekend and early next week.  The humidity will be low so it will be great for anyone doing end o […]

The rains came late yesterday.  We received a little over half and inch from late afternoon into the overnight.  It was badly needed.  Radar is showing rain moving around a low pressure center located over so […]

Showers and a few thunderstorms moved across the eastern half of lower Michigan last night, but we didn’t get anything here.  This morning began with a few sprinkles and cloudy skies but no significant rain so […]

Skies were clear this morning, but now mostly cloudy skies have appeared.  We do have rain in our forecast for this afternoon and we really could use it.  The lawn is getting brown again.  Today should be the wa […]

There really isn’t much more to say about our weather other than it being great!  We are expecting it to end, however, with much cooler temps and rain for the weekend and into early next week.  Regardless, our w […]

We have clear skies, light breezes, and very warm temperatures.  It’s warm enough to have the AC back on but it got a rest the past three days.  I had my window open last night and actually got cold.  Lows fell to […]

Today turned out to be a very pleasant late summer day.  It is sunny, winds are light, and the humidity is low.   It’s just a nice day to spend outdoors doing something because we won’t be having many more of th […]

Yesterday was chilly and cloudy.  We were supposed to see the sun late in the day, but it never happened.  Today we have more of the same, and temperatures will still be on the cooler side.  Once again, they ar […]

The weather is certainly different from what was originally predicted.  We have sprinkles this morning and cloudy skies.  The temps are also cooler than what was supposed to be, but that’s not unusual for M […]

This Labor Day Weekend has been pretty nice weather-wise.  Yesterday was hot with highs reaching into the upper 80s.  Thunderstorms developed late in the day, and just seemed to hang around without much m […]

Although the weather service considers today as the first day of autumn, our weather seems more like mid July.  Temps are in the mid 80s, and light breezes  make it feel even hotter.  It sounds like we’ll have a […]

The winds are a bit strong today but that helps keep the temperatures at a comfortable level.  I don’t have the AC on today because of the nice breeze blowing through my house.  Even though it is quite warm, i […]

The storms that rolled through southern Michigan yesterday certainly left their mark.  Fortunately, my area was spared from much of the damage, but other areas, including Detroit weren’t as lucky.  My daughter l […]

We were promised rain . . . . a lot of rain yesterday, and I think everyone got it but us.  There was only 0.06″ in my gauge this morning while other stations were reporting anywhere from half an inch to almost […]
