A bit chilly but pleasant today. This coming week promises to be warmer with, so far, no rain in the forecast. Might see a couple of really warm days which pleases some of us, others not so much. But it won’t last, we all know that.  My suggestion is to get out there and enjoy the weather while it’s with us. All to soon that won’t be a good idea.

Chilly morning today. Tomorrow will be a bit better and the weekdays coming for us will be much better…or warmer, anyway. Mother Nature is definitely playing number games with us this weekend. And I say that’s enough of that. We all know that cooler weather is on the way, but it can hold off longer than this to make me happy. I wish the warmth would hang around as long as possible. Next week will be cooperating with that wish.

Chilly out there this morning without a whole lot of wind. However, looking up into the sky, those clouds are literally flying by. So somewhere up there is one heck of a strong wind blowing. Mighty happy it’s not down here with us. Staying chilly tomorrow but looking ahead, this is a warm week coming up. There is even a possibility of seeing a 90 degree day, maybe even two, toward the end of the week.  So summer temperatures aren’t quite ready to let go yet. Me? I’m happy about that. Not everyone is, I know, looking forward to cooler fall numbers. They’ll on the way, we know that, but not next week, that’s for certain.

Currently 72 with an average wind from the WSW of 3 mph. Feels like 72 degrees. Dew Point 59, Barometer 30.08, Humidity 60%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:12 am, Sunset 8:08 pm.

Mostly sunny with a high in the lower 80s. SW winds around 10 mph.

70% chance of rain showers with a chance of a thunderstorm. Low in the upper 50s. W winds around 10 mph with gusts to 20 overnight.

Very comfortable today but that pesky cold front is going to trip on through dropping us down into the 60 degree range until the beginning of next week. A chilly weekend will be on the menu for our area for sure. Take heart, those of you like me who like the warm temperatures, next week we’ll see more 80s again. It’s fall in Michigan and those up and down number are the run of the mill. Those cold fronts will insist on traveling through like it or not. This current one coming is a dandy but it will be here and gone by next Monday. Just keep a jacket on hand for the next several days.

Look for comfortable temperatures today and tomorrow but then the bottom falls out.  Watch for rain on Friday. Then cold front coming through is going to drop our temperatures, at least for a little while, about 10-20 degrees below normal. A downright nippy weekend coming our way. A taste of fall and warm jackets to remind us of what direction we’re heading in to.

Should be a bit cool today but Wednesday and especially Thursday will be warmer and pleasant. The bottom falls out on Friday when rain and a cold front come through leaving us downright cold through the weekend. Lots of places in this country like the SW, still dealing with sweltering heat, would appreciate that sort of weather . Alas…it’s not going to visit them, it’s going to insist on being here. Just line up some warm jackets for the duration. By next Tuesday, if all goes well, we should be back in the 70 degree range. Sure looking forward to that.

Not bad Labor Day weekend weather for us this year. We’re going to experience a nice warm up early this week followed by rain coming in Friday and Saturday. This is brought to us courtesy of the next cold front. A dandy that will drop next weekend’s temperatures into the 60s. Next Sunday won’t be nearly as comfortable as yesterday was. A taste of fall for sure heading our way.

What a splendid beginning to the month of September. Could not ask for better. The entire coming week looks fine with the chance of some rain coming on Friday. Looking ahead with rain on Friday, perhaps on Saturday, the temperature for next Sunday will be a chilly 66. Lots of things can change by then, but that’s the picture we can see from here. Not at all sure I’m ready for days with a high in the 60s. Alas…..
