Rain is in our forecast for today, and radar is showing it slowly approaching us.  At this time, however, it appears to be light with no significant storms developing.  Thunderstorms are supposed to develop this a […]

This morning began with a few sprinkles, and the radar is showing rain over us, but nothing is happening right now.  We are expecting intermittent showers throughout the day and temperatures will remain below […]

We have yet another beautiful day to enjoy.  Highs will only make it into the 70s although it is quite breezy.   Extended forecasts for the fist half of June are calling for temperatures a little below average, so […]

Today is perfection as far as I’m concerned.  The sky is clear, temperatures are comfortable, and breezes are light.  We couldn’t ask for a nicer day.  Yesterday was mostly cloudy and we did have a few drops of ra […]

Today will be the hottest day that we have had so far this year.  I’m not sure if any records will be broken, but I know that it will be much to hot for me.  I don’t plan on being outdoors much, in spite of it l […]

Today’s weather will feel more like July than the end of May, but who’s complaining?  For those planning any time in or on the water, it will be ideal.  It is a bit breezy but that will make it feel a little c […]

We have gorgeous weather for our holiday weekend with summer-like temperatures.  Today should reach the low 80s and highs near  90°F tomorrow.  There is no rain mentioned in the forecast until Wednesday, so tha […]

Today feels like a day in July with the air so full of moisture.  We have had stop-and-go rain since this morning, although showers are becoming more numerous as the afternoon wears on.  We had showers overnight w […]

We have mostly clear skies, light breezes and comfortable temperatures.  It’s the perfect day for doing some gardening.  I went out and bought more perennials today, as I’m trying to change all my gardens to t […]

Another cold front has moved through the state, and once again, our temperatures are below average.  Many of us are wondering if this will be ongoing through the summer.  It’s time to warm up and stay there, but M […]

It seems like our weather just cannot warm up and stay there.  We have constant roller-coaster temperatures which are causing too much rain as well as severe storms.  Gaylord, MI was hit by an F3 tornado on F […]

This morning is beginning with plenty of sun, breezy, and very warm.  This is the prelude for tomorrow’s weather.  Actually, most of the storms are expected tomorrow night which I’m not happy about, especially w […]

This will not be a “work outdoors” day for us.  With all this rain, it’s hard to keep up with lawn mowing.  It seems like we just mow it, and have to start all over again.  We mow about 2.5 acres so it’s quite a […]

After a week of “hot” temperatures, some cooler weather is refreshing.  I don’t do well when the temperature gets over 80°F, but with the low humidity that we’ve had, it hasn’t been too bad.  The roller-coaster te […]

Yesterday began with clear skies, but it didn’t last long.  About 2 PM, the clouds started rolling in, and the radar showed developing small scattered cells  of thunderstorms developing , mainly to our south.  As […]

Once again, we have a nice, sunny morning.  Temperatures are rising quickly which will probably usher in some  storms this afternoon.  The Weather Service is telling us to expect some strong storms, possible re […]

Yesterday was wonderful and today will be as well.  So far, our sky is clear and temps are already in the low 80s.  Our weather is expected to take a turn tomorrow with a bit of a cool-down and possible t […]

The leaves have really popped out over the past two days.  It’s amazing what a couple of 80 degree days will do.  The storms that I mentioned yesterday never reached us, and it seems that not many got much rain f […]

Radar is showing a fragmented thunderstorm moving in my direction.  In fact, it’s been on the radar for the past 3 hours but doesn’t seem to know where it want’s to go.  There was a large red cell which seemed t […]

Mother’s Day was quite nice, but we lost our sun half way through the day.  Radar showed some light showers over much of the state but the humidity and dew point was too low for any of it to reach the ground.  T […]
