100% chance of overnight rain. Some local areas can expect heavy rainfall. Low 42. E winds 15 -25 mph.

A gloomy morning with the feel of rain on the way. At least it isn’t snow. I can’t believe they are getting snow off to the West. Is this miserable winter ever going to leave the country? It just seems impossible to think it keeps on keeping on in spite of what the calendar says. We are almost into the month of May. You know, the merry month of May where April showers were supposed to usher in May flowers? Not exactly going according to plan this time around. But, we have hope. Sooner or later Spring will…no, actually it’s becoming more like sooner or later Summer will be here. Dang! Another pseudo-Spring.

Currently 39 with an E wind of 14 mph making it feel like 31 degrees. Dew Point 28, Humidity 64%, Barometer 30.21 & falling, Visibility 2 mi., Sunrise 6:38 am, Sunset 8:40 pm. 100% chance of rain/snow mix this morning becoming all rain in the afternoon. High 44. ESE winds 10 -20mph.

Cloudy becoming partly cloudy after midnight. Low 36. ENE winds 10 – 15 mph.

Oh yes, the weather folk are still tossing around the snow word. For some reason they refuse to let it all go. I’m not going to look out the window this morning just in the outside chance a stray snowflake puts in an appearance. Rain I can cope with. Snow – no.

Currently 48 with a NE wind of 9 mph making it feel like 44 degrees. Dew Point 19, Humidity 31%, Barometer 30.18 & rising, Visibility 10 mil, Sunrise 6:40 am, Sunset 8:39 pm. Sunny to partly cloudy today with a high of 57. ENE winds 10-15 mph.

Partly cloudy to cloudy overnight with a slight chance of rain showers. Low 38. ESE winds 10 – 15 mph.

Well, okay…so we were told to expect snow overnight. Yeah, snow. Woke up figuring to be all depressed about the lousy unspring-like weather and Viola! Blue skies and sunshine. It’s almost as if Mother Nature decided to play an April Fools Day joke on us the last Sunday in April. Good going, Ma! So far today, it’s nothing but a glorious day. Those waking up to blue skies and sunshine continue, light wind…compared to what we were thinking we were going to have to endure, this is a marvelous day. Granted, rain coming the next 4 days or so, but that’s okay. For a nice Sunday, we’ll put up with that, and gladly.

Currently 36 with an average wind from the NNW of 10 mph making it feel like 29 degrees. Dew Point 23, Humidity 59%, Barometer 29.95 & rising, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:41 am, Sunset 8:38 pm. Mostly cloudy with a slight chance of rain showers. High 46. WNW winds 10 – 15 mph.

40% chance of rain with the possibility of snow showers mixing in. Low 30. N winds 5 – 10 mph.

No kidding – there’s a chance of snow. This has become the longest, most miserable winter ever. And it still lingers, LONG after it should have a total retreat from our picture. At the rate it’s going, next winter is going to be here before this last one leaves.

Temperature 53 with an average wind from the NW of 15 mph making it feel like 49 degrees. Dew Point 44, Humidity 70%, Barometer 29.63 & rising, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:42 am, Sunset 8:37 pm. Partly cloudy morning will become a mostly sunny afternoon with windy conditions. High 58. NW winds 20-30 mph with gusts up to 40.

Clear. Windy conditions continue. Low 31. NW winds 20 – 30 mph with higher gusts possible.

So, today the wind is with us to obviously blow away any trace of nice weather for awhile. Looking ahead it appears to have rain in our schedule pretty much every single day for the coming week. Plus, we can toss in the chance of some snow putting in an appearance on Saturday. Sure sounds like a whole lot of fun, doesn’t it?

Currently 60 with a SSE wind of 6 mph making it feel like 59 degrees. Dew Point 38, Humidity 45%, Barometer 29.82 & falling, Visibility 10 mil, Sunrise 6:44 am, Sunset 8:35 pm. Partly cloudy with a slight chance of rain showers. High 69. Light and variable winds.

Cloudy with a 70% chance of overnight rain. Low 46. N winds 10 – 15 mph.

No Hummingbirds here yet, but my tiny backyard is full of the regular cast. Had a few Robins, but evidently there wasn’t all that much out there to tempt them to hang around. Haven’t seen them since that first week or so. I refuse to accept the Weather Channel folk reporting there is a slight chance of….gasp…some snow showing up again this coming Saturday. The insanity of this past winter that refuses to give up and go away is unacceptable. So I’m going to dwell on the fact that for the most part, it continues to warm up and tempt the summer birds and critters back into gracing our area. Will be excited to see my first little Hummingbird when it returns.

Currently 43 with an E wind of 1 mph. Feels like 43 degrees. Dew Point 33, Humidity 67%, Barometer 30.05 & rising, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:46 am, Sunset 8:34 pm. A mostly sunny morning will turn into a mostly cloudy afternoon. High 64. S winds 5 – 10 mph.

Clear to partly cloudy overnight, low 42. SSW winds 5 – 10 mph.

According to the big weather map, the stormy weather is off to the south of us, some to the north and perhaps a bit off to the west. Lucky us, right now, we are in the clear. Nice to be nestled in that spot. Hoping we can keep our position for awhile.

Big flooding again, this time off to the Dallas area. SO much flooding going on anymore. My heart aches for the folks involved. Been there, done that, and know how destructive water can be. How terrible the after flood clean up can be.

Currently 44 with a WNW winds 17 mph making it feel like 37 degrees. Dew Point 42, Humidity 91%, Barometer 29.86 & rising, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:47 am, Sunset 8:33 pm. Cloudy skies with a slight chance of morning rain will become a partly cloudy afternoon. High 58. NW winds 15 – 25 mph.

Clear overnight skies. Low 35. NNW winds 10 -15 mph decreasing to 5 mph.

Not a very pleasant morning. Rather cool with the feel of rain in the air likely all left over from last night when we did get a bit of rain. The upper cold air disturbance is now moving off to the East and hopefully will take the moisture off and away for the rest of the day. The next few days look rather enjoyable with some sunshine in our forecast. I guess we have to put up with a blah day once in awhile to appreciate those lovely days when they come our way. Fair enough.

Currently 70 with an average wind from the S of 13 mph. Feels like 70 degrees. Dew Point 41, Humidity 35%, Barometer 30.09 & falling, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:49 am, Sunset 8:32 pm. Mix of sun and clouds, high around 77. S winds 10-20 mph.

Cloudy overnight with an 80% chance of rain developing. Low 54. S winds 10 – 20 mph.

Had a fabulous day of lovely weather for Easter this year. Not all that ordinary for Michigan. It was warm, plentiful sunshine, light winds and the sight of trees beginning the turn to budding out and turning green was uplifting. Today is destined to be another one – a day to cherish. Rain returns tomorrow, but that’s a spring thing, so we can cope with a day or so of rain. It’s just so nice to be typing a temperature of of 70 degrees now. Been awhile.

Currently 52 with an average wind from the SSW of 6 mph making it feel like 50 degrees. Dew Point 39, Humidity 63%, Barometer 30.02 & rising, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:50 am, Sunset 8:31 pm. A good mix of sun and clouds today. High 70. SW winds 5 – 10 mph.

A few overnight clouds, low 48. S winds 5 – 10 mph.

We are blessed with fairly decent Easter weather today. No rain, snow, excessive wind…just a nice day. How did that happen? No matter, we’re grateful for it. I hope everyone has a blessed day, no matter what weather Mother Nature has decided to grace you with on this special day.
