Currently 36 with a 5 mph wind from the WNW. Feels like 30 degrees. Dew Point 32, Barometer 30.12, Humidity 95%, Visibility 9 mi., Sunrise 8:00 am, Sunset 5:51 pm.

Mostly cloudy today with a high in the upper 30s. SW winds 5-15 mph.

80% chance of overnight rain possibly mixed with snow showers. Low in the lower 30s. SW winds 10-15 mph.

Very likely a messy weather pattern tonight and tomorrow but other than that, the future is looking dry. And with many of the day offering temperatures in the 40 degree range. Things are looking up. Above normal numbers in store for February as far as can be told so far.

Currently 37 with a 4 mph wind from the NE. Feels like 30. Dew Point 36, Barometer  30.03, Humidity 94%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 8:01 am, Sunset 5:59 pm.

Cloudy with a high in the upper 30s. N winds 10-15 mph.

Mostly cloudy. Low in the upper 20s. NW winds 5-10 mph.

No sunshine today but -dare I say it? – we might see a peek of sun tomorrow. After that it won’t be happening until around the end of next week. And by then, we’ll all be more than eager to see it. In between times, we could be looking at a frozen mix thing (again) around Tuesday, but maybe that will change before then. Let’s hope so.

And GO LIONS!

Currently 36 with a 2 mph wind from the E. Feels like 34. Dew Point 35, Barometer 30.22, Humidity 100%, Visibility -.66 mi., Sunrise 8:02 am, Sunset 5:48 pm.

Cloudy with areas of fog. High in the upper 30s. Light winds.

30% chance of rain possibly mixed with snow. Areas of fog. Low in the mid 30s. NE winds 5-10 mph.

Perhaps some precipitation tonight but after that, nothing in store until Monday night through Tuesday. Our weekly temperatures should be in the upper 30s, maybe even a 40. Much better than we’ve had recently. And eventually, it will only get better. Nice, huh?

Currently 37 with a 3 mph wind from the ESE. Feels like 30 degrees. Dew Point 36, Barometer 30.05, Humidity 100%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 8:03 am, Sunset 5:47 pm.

70% chance of rain. Patchy fog. High in the upper 30s. NE winds 5-10 mph.

70% chance of overnight rain. Areas of fog. Low in the lower 30s. Light winds.

Our daytime temperatures are supposed to remain in the 30s. There’s nothing to say we won’t end up with a night or two of mixed perception, but as of now it’s not expected to amount to anything significant. This is like a tiny hint of the coming of an early spring. It isn’t, really, but we can pretend all we like.

Currently 37 with a 2 mph wind from the E. Feels like 32 degrees. Dew Point 37, Barometer 30.16, Humidity 100%, Visibility 0.41 mi., Sunrise 8:04 am, Sunset 5:45 pm.

Dense Fog Alert Until 10:00 PM.

Cloudy. Widespread fog through the day. 30% chance of afternoon rain. High in the upper 30s. E winds 5-10 mph.

100% chance of overnight rain. Areas of fog. Low in the mid 30s. NE winds 5-15 mph.

Should be getting used to the foggy days. Seems to be what we end up with as we transition from harsh weather to some that’s not quite a wintry. At least with the temperature as high as it is, it’s not a freezing fog which can be deadly. We just have to take it slow and easy and keep an eye out for places where the fog thickens limiting visibility. After Friday, the precipitation should cease until around next Tuesday. Even at that, if things stay the way they are predicted that could be a one of thing and back into more dry days. Fingers crossed.

Currently 36 with a 3 mph wind from the ESE. Feels like 30 degrees. Dew Point 34, Barometer 30.18, Humidity 100%, Visibility 1.5 mi., Sunrise 8:05 am, Sunset 5:44 pm.

100% chance of rain. Widespread fog and dense freezing rain possible. High in the upper 30s. L winds becoming E 5-10 mph in the afternoon.

Cloudy tonight with a 30% chance of rain. Widespread dense fog. Low in the mid 30s. Light winds.

Not a hint of sunshine today. Rain very likely, which as long as the temperatures stay over freezing, should help get rid of some of the snow. There’s still plenty of it to get rid of. Haven’t seen much fog around my area but I understand it’s dense in other places. Just be careful out there. Looks like drier days coming up all with temperatures around the lower 30s. Long as no more snow is in the picture – and it isn’t for the foreseeable future – things are improving.

Currently 34 with a 3 mph wind from the SE. Feels like 28 degrees. Dew Point 33, Barometer 30.28, Humidity 100%, Visibility 3 mi., Sunrie 8:06 am, Sunset 5:43 pm.

100% chance of rain and snow mix. Areas of fog, freezing rain and sleet. High in the mid 30s. E winds 5-10 mph with gusts to 20 in the afternoon.

Cloudy with a 40% chance of overnight rain possibly mixed with freezing rain. Widespread fog. Low in the lower 30s. SE winds around 10 mph.

Well, winter couldn’t possibly just move on without causing a mess. And we’ve got just that. A mess. Fog, freezing rain, sleet, wet snow…got everything but sunshine – and that’s sure not going to happen anytime soon. We simply have to get through this and the days will get better. Be safe – drive and walk carefully.

Currently 25 with a 4 mph wind from the SW. Feels like 10 degrees. Dew Point 20, Barometer 30.23, Humidity 88%, Visibility 4 mi., Sunrise 8:06 am, Sunset 5:42 pm.

Winter Weather Advisory from Tuesday 1 am until 4 pm.

90% chance of early snow then possibly mixed with rain sleet and freezing rain in the afternoon. High in the lower 30s. SW winds 15-20 with gusts to 30 mph.

90% chance of light freezing rain possibly mixed with freezing rain snow and sleet overnight. Ice accumulation up to one tenth of an inch possible. Low in the lower 30s. SW winds 5-15 mph.

Well, this is a fine mess…we get rid of one form of rotten weather and move right on into another one. This one possibly more dangerous as it involves ice. In other words, starting off this week on a negative note. If we can just get past this couple of days we’ll get into plain old rain with upper 30 degree temperatures. Not ideal, but not scary either. Maybe uncomfortable but not necessarily dangerous. Please be careful today and tomorrow. Not sure how icy things will get but even a little bit is bad for driving or walking.

Currently 23 with a 5 mph wind from the WSW. Feels like 12 degrees. Dew Point 14, Barometer 30.55, Humidity 76%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 8:07 am, Sunset 5:40 pm.

Partly sunny in the morning becoming mostly sunny. High in the lower 20s. SW winds 10-20 mph with gusts to 25.

Partly cloudy tonight with a low 10-15. S winds 10-20 mph.

Looking better out there today. Some sun peeking through is such a welcome sight. Makes it feel a tad warmer than it is. Digging out of the brutal cold and snow is, of course, going to put us smack dab into the mixed mess – the wintry mix that usually leaves us with some ice to deal with. We all know it couldn’t be as easy as cold into warm. That’s not what Michigan is all about. We’re used to dealing with a variety of messy weather. This coming week will give us some of that variety, I think. Just pay attention.

Currently 12 with a 1 mph from the WSW. Feels like 0 degrees. Dew Point 12, Barometer 30.35, Humidity 88%, Visibility 7 mi., Sunrise 8:08 am, Sunset 5:39 pm.

Mostly cloudy with a 40% chance of snow showers. High in the low 20s. NW winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 25. Wind Chill as low as minus 13.

Mostly cloudy. Low 5-10 above. NW winds 5-10 mph in the evening becoming light.

Last night was the coldest of our cold nights lately. That should be the end of it. Not  that we’re going to be zooming into anything balmy, but it won’t be as brutal as it’s been. Next week we’re looking at that messy wintry mix stuff that’s never good – or safe.  The best part is that some of this snow should be melting away. We’re lucky that Winter Storm Indigo gave us a pass. What we have been – and continue to be – dealing with is the lake effect snow. And even at that we’re, in my area, much luckier than so many others who get slammed by the lake effect stuff. We continue, as miserable as it’s been here lately, to be in a sort of cushioned spot with the worst of the weather going to the north, south, east and west of us. May it continue to be so.
