Murphy's Weather

Temperature 66 with an ENE wind of 5 mph skipping about but making no difference, so it feels like 66 degrees. Dew Point 61, Humidity 86%, Barometer 30.04 & rising, Visibility 9 mi, Sunrise 6:31 am, Sunset 9:04 pm. Morning clouds and sun will be come all clouds in the afternoon with the chance for a stray shower or thunderstorm popping up. High 82. E winds 5 – 10 mph.

Mostly cloudy to partly cloudy tonight with that same chance for a stray shower or thunderstorm. Low 61. ENE winds 5 – 10 mph.

Supposed to be seeing some sun out there among the clouds but no…hard as I try I see nothing of the sort. Pretty solid cloud cover up there this morning. There’s a better chance tomorrow and Thursday for a stray shower to pop up. Lots and lots of precipitation way to the south, but Michigan seems to be staying up out of the fray for the time being. Can’t believe all the rain the East Coast seems to be stuck in, they can’t seem to get a break. No such weather going on here, which we’re all happy about. We do need rain, but not as much as what’s falling on the coast.

Currently 63 with an ENE wind of 1 mph making not one iota of difference, so it feels like 63 degrees. Dew Point 60, Humidity 90%, Barometer 30.08, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:30 am, Sunset 9:05 pm. Partly cloudy with a slight chance for a shower or thunderstorm. High 81. ENE winds 5 – 10 mph.

About the same tonight with a low near 60. NE winds 5 – 10 mph.

Just saw the long-range forecast for my area during the month of August – near or slightly below normal temperatures, which would put it in the 70 degree mark. Not a bad thought. Not hot, not cold, just comfortable? Who could possibly argue with that? Certainly not me. The very thought of not having to use the A/C for the month is a delight. Windows open, breezes blowing in? Perfect. Now we’ll see how close that prediction comes.

Currently 72  with a SE wind of 3 mph flitting about and leaving it to feel like 72 degrees. Dew Point 57, Humidity 60%, Barometer 30.11 & falling, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:29 am, Sunset 9:07 pm. Partly cloudy with a slight chance of a rain shower. High 79. SW winds 5 – 10 mph.

Partly cloudy tonight with a slight chance of rain. Low 58. Light and variable winds.

This is about as perfect as summer weather can get. Chilly enough during the night where A/C or fans are not needed, cool mornings and ideal daytime temperatures. This is a wonderful system we’re experiencing right now. A couple of chances for a bit of rain coming up this week but other than that, no end in sight for this delightful summer weather – at least not for the foreseeable future. Can’t ask for more than this.

Currently 65 with a WNW wind of 5 mph leaving it to feel like 65 degrees. Dew Point 57, Humidity 75%, Barometer 30.10 & rising, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:28 am, Sunset 9:08 pm. Partly cloudy with a slight chance of a rain shower. High 78. WNW winds 5 – 10 mph.

Clear overnight skies. Low 56. W winds 5 – 10 mph.

Nights are about perfect for sleeping lately and mornings are just a tad on the cool side. Very pleasant, very enjoyable.  The weather pattern ahead of us for the next week look to be about the same. So nice not to have the A/C blasting…I haven’t even had a fan on lately. There’s no way to complain about this kind of summer weather. It’s almost ideal. Works for me, anyway.

Currently 64 with a W wind of 7 mph skirting around the issue and leaving that 64 to be exactly how it feels. Dew Point 60, Humidity 87%, Barometer 29.99 & rising, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:27 am, Sunset 9:09 pm. Partly cloudy with a slight chance of a rain shower. High 73. WNW winds 10 – 15 mph.

Generally clear tonight, low 56. W winds 10 – 15 mph.

OK – so the rain seems to have been taken out of our forecast, leaving only a slight chance for a rain drop or two. That’s alright for me today because I have chasing around to do and would rather not drive about in the rain. However, the fact is that we could use more rain. It’s been a heck of a dry summer this time around. By now everyone is thinking and hoping we’re not going to be paying for it with more snow during the winter season. We’ll see, I reckon. What ever comes, or doesn’t, will do so in spite of how much we worry or fret. In the meantime, I’m out and about in the so far dry morning.

Currently 67 with a W wind of 11 mph not making any difference, so it feels like the 67 degrees it is. Dew Point 64, Humidity 89%, Barometer 29.83 & rising, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:26 am, Sunset 9:10 am. Partly cloudy today with a high of 77.

Partly cloudy tonight with a low of 58. W winds 10 – 20 mph.

Not much going on today. The rain we expected today seems to have decided to come around tomorrow. Not so handy for my plans, but then nobody asks for my input in the matter, so whatever happens, happens. At least the outrageous heat we were dealing with for far too long seems to have fled the scene. And I’d be surprised to see anything like that come back for us this summer. Like I said, I have no say-so in the matter, but that’s my guess, anyway.

Currently 67 with an average wind from the N of 4 mph skipping over the entire situation, leaving it to feel like 67 degrees. Dew Point 66, Humidity 97%, Barometer 29.97 & rising, Visibility 6 mi, Sunrise 6:25 am, Sunset 9:11 pm. Morning fog and clouds will give way to a mostly sunny afternoon. High 85. NW winds 10 -15 mph.

Partly cloudy early will become a 60% chance of overnight showers and thunderstorms. Low 64. WSW winds 5 -10 mph.

Nicely foggy this morning but the promise of sunny afternoon skies is dangling in front of us. Should be a lovely day followed by, hopefully, a nice overnight rain. Some morning rain tomorrow is possible, too, which will be good. We went through such a dry spell that any rain we get now we are still grateful for.

Currently 70 with a WNW wind of 3 mph making not one iota of difference so it feels like the 70 degrees it is. Dew Pint 67, Humidity 88%, Barometer 29.95 & rising, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:24 am, Sunset 9:12 pm. Cloudy – some decreasing in clouds during the afternoon. High 82. NW winds 10 – 15 mph.

Clearing overnight, low 61. WNW winds 5 – 10 mph.

Feels sort of sticky this morning, not a breath of air stirring even though there is supposed to be a bit of a wind blowing. Last night was rather weird, too, without a hint of a breeze during the night. Just dead calm. Got up to sit in my favorite chair by my favorite window, wide open to watch the nighttime, and I was struck by how absolutely calm it was. If you sit long enough, there is usually at least a tiny breath of wind stirring about in the trees, moving the leaves about. Not so last night. And the calm continues this morning. Makes the air feel heavy and the humidity evident. So…that’s my morning. Heavy and humid, I guess.

Currently 67 with a N wind of 5 mph making no difference so it feels like 67 degrees. Dew Point 64, Humidity 89%, Barometer 29.88 & rising, Visibility 9 mi, Sunrise 6:23 am, Sunset 9:13 pm. Cloudy with a 30% chance of afternoon showers. High 75. Light and variable winds.

Some overnight clouds. Low 63. Light and variable winds.

Rather a blah day going on with the feel of possible rain hanging around. No big deal. We’ve had some precipitation lately, so not overly concerned whether we get more today or not. Not a very cheery start to the week but it could be worse, at least the temperature is in the comfortable range. We’ll take that.

Currently 69 with a NE wind of 11 mph scooting on by, leaving it to feel like 69 degrees. Dew Point 67, Humidity 94%, Barometer 29.85 & rising, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:22 am, Sunset 9:14 pm. Cloudy with a slight chance of rain, high near 75. ENE winds 10 – 20 mph.

Same for tonight with a low of 62. NNE winds 5 – 10 mph.

Very damp feel to the day and there was a light, very light rain falling earlier. Probably didn’t add up to much, but since we did get almost an inch overnight- .98″- that’s okay. We are so happy we got so much rain while we were in such need. Everything has greened up considerable since a few days ago. Looks to be a mostly sunny week ahead but temperatures staying in the comfortable range of upper 70s, lower 80s. Sounds wonderful.
