Monday, April 14, 2025-SW Michigan-Starting The Week With Some Sunshine

Monday, April 14, 2025-SW Michigan-Starting The Week With Some Sunshine

Currently 57 with an average wind from the SSW of 3 mph. Feels like 57 degrees. Dew Point 43, Barometer 29.63, Humidity 56%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:02 am, Sunset 8:23 pm.

Partly sunny until midday becoming mostly sunny. high in the lower 60s. W winds 10-15 mph increasing to 15-25 mph in the afternoon with gusts to around 40.

Partly cloudy with a 70% chance of overnight rain possibly mixed with snow showers. Low in the mid 30s. W winds 15-20 with gusts to 35.

Not a bad day for the beginning of the week. Sunshine is always welcome even if we’re all still waiting for cozy weather to settle in. Tomorrow is going to be dipping back down into the too chilly range but maybe that will end it? We keep hoping but alas…If only our temperatures would climb up into at least the 60 degree range and stay there. Then if variety is needed, heading higher might be refreshing rather than crashing back down into the 40s. We’ll see how it goes. But none of us are putting away our winter jackets just yet.

Sunday, April 13, 2025-SW Michigan-Too Many Day With Possible Rain

Sunday, April 13, 2025-SW Michigan-Too Many Day With Possible Rain

Currently 50 with an average wind of 7 mph from the SE. Feels like 50 degrees. Dew Point 33, Barometer 29.98. Humidity 47%, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 7:04 am, Sunset 8:22 pm.

Mostly cloudy with a 50% chance of afternoon rain. High in the upper 50s. S winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 25.

Cloudy in the evening becoming party cloudy with a 50% chance of rain. Low in the upper 40s. S winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 25.

Chance of rain today, tomorrow, Tuesday…probably later in the week, too. Plus we can see our temperature drop once again into the 40s this week- which could bring a snow flake or two along with the rain. This is, once again, not a grand spring week. We keep waiting and watching and wishing…but so far, we aren’t getting much in the area of results. Alas…

Saturday, April 12, 2025-SW Michigan-Enjoy Today’s Sunshine

Saturday, April 12, 2025-SW Michigan-Enjoy Today’s Sunshine

Currently 43 with an average wind fro the ESE of 2 mph. Feels like 43 degrees. Dew Point 20, Barometer 30.2, Humidity 36%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:06 am, Sunset 8:21 pm.

Sunny. High in he upper 50s. Light winds.

Partly cloudy becoming mostly cloudy with a 20% chance of overnight rain. Low in the lower 40s. Light winds becoming S 5-10 mph.

Tomorrow may or may not bring us some rain but definitely some clouds. Still looking at our temperature dropping on Tuesday and Wednesday but never fear, it will begin to climb again right after that. Spring is being coy but sooner or later it will have to stop playing games and settle in. We’ve certainly waited long enough.

Friday, April 11, 2025-SW Michigan-A Little Warmth To Enjoy

Friday, April 11, 2025-SW Michigan-A Little Warmth To Enjoy

Currently 40 with an average wind from the ENE of 8 mph. Feels like 38 degrees. Dew Point 26, Barometer 30.22, Humidity 58%, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 7:07 am, Sunset 8:20 pm.

Sunny with a high in the lower 50s. N winds 5-10 mph.

Clear. Low in the upper 20s. Light winds.

I think we can enjoy some temperatures in the 50s for a while. Not next Tuesday or Friday however. As of now, those days will drop us once again into the 40s. (We just can’t seem to shake those numbers) Take heart though because it begins to look as if after next Friday we could find ourselves basking in the 60 degree range. Won’t that be refreshing? And hopefully lasting. We shall see.

Thursday, April 10, 2025-SW Michigan-A Dismal Day But Sunshine Tomorrow

Thursday, April 10, 2025-SW Michigan-A Dismal Day But Sunshine Tomorrow

Currently 34 with an average wind from the NE of 6 mph. Feels like 30 degrees. Dew Point 34, Barometer 30.06, Humidity 100%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:09 am, Sunset 8:19 pm.

Mostly cloudy with a 20% chance of rain. High in the mid 40s. NE winds 5-10 mph with gusts to 20.

Partly cloudy in the evening becoming clear. Low in the upper 20s. NE winds 5-10 mph with gusts to 20 in the evening.

Look for a few degrees warmer starting tomorrow. Probably sunshine Friday and Saturday with sun and clouds on Sunday. The warmth will last through Monday but Monday will also bring along some rain. That will usher us right back down into some cold temperatures for Tuesday and Wednesday. So far, there seems to be no end to this pattern but we can hope this will be the end of it. We would most certainly feel better if once some warm weather moved in it would stay the course and not give way to yet more chill. We’re getting toward the middle of April so it sure is time for winter to let loose any remaining grip and fade away. Waiting for that fade…

Wednesday, April 9, 2025-SW Michigan-Weather Pattern Getting Old

Wednesday, April 9, 2025-SW Michigan-Weather Pattern Getting Old

Currently 32 with an average wind from the SSE of 5 mph. Feels like 30 degrees. Dew Point 17, Barometer 30.13, Humidity 48%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:11 am, Sunset 8:17 pm.

70 % chance of afternoon rain. High in the mid 40s. S winds 5-10 with gusts to 20 in the afternoon.

80% chance of rain and snow. Low in the lower 30s. SSE winds 5-10 mph becoming E overnight.

This is a tiresome pattern with our weather. A few fairly warm days with a whole lot more of them on the chilly side. And the word snow insists on creeping into our story. We can, happily, look for sunshine this coming Friday through Sunday, but watch out for the weather around next Tuesday and Wednesday. We’re going to be dipping back down into the 40s. Hard to imagine, but that’s what we’re looking at for now. Wishing and fingers crossed and all that doesn’t seem to be working for bringing a decent spring into the area. Just isn’t going to be happening this time around.

Tuesday, April 8, 2025-SW Michigan-Cold Stays With Us

Tuesday, April 8, 2025-SW Michigan-Cold Stays With Us

Currently 28 with an average wind from the NW of 6 mph. Feels like 25 degrees. Dew Point 16, Barometer 30.12, Humidity 63%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:12 am, Sunset 8:16 pm.

Partly sunny with a 30% chance of flurries. High in the mid 30s. NW winds 5-15 mph.

Partly cloudy with an overnight low in the mid 20s. Light winds becoming S 5-10 mph.

No warm up for us and the opportunity for a few snow flakes hangs around for a few more days. No way could we ever have imagined that we’d welcome 50 let alone 40 degree days as spring. But alas…we’ve had to deal with far too many of them lingering in the 30s. Look for rain tomorrow and Thursday…very likely a snowflake mixed in there somewhere. This should let up by Friday and our temperatures should start to rise again to where it’s at least comfortable. Perhaps some sun Friday through the weekend, which will be refreshing. And with any luck our temperature will go from the 40s on Friday clear up into the possible 60 degree mark on Sunday. Fingers crossed that we are finally nearing the end of the tunnel and looking at better weather ahead.

Monday, April 7, 2025-SW Michigan-No Warmth For Us Yet

Monday, April 7, 2025-SW Michigan-No Warmth For Us Yet

Currently 39 with an average wind of 8 mph from the WNW. Feels like 34 degrees. Dew Point 30, Barometer 29.74, Humidity 72%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:14 am, Sunset 8:15 pm.

Mostly cloudy with a 40% chance of rain/snow showers until midday becoming partly sunny in the afternoon. High in the upper 30s. W winds 10-20 mph becoming N 15-20 with gusts to 35 in the afternoon.

Partly cloudy with an overnight low in the lower 20s. NW winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 30.

There simply is no spring warm up in our forecast yet – not for a few more days. Look for a bit of sunshine tomorrow, but nothing warm. Wednesday and Thursday still chilly with some rain. After that – fingers crossed – our temperatures will rise a bit more into what we usually expect from spring.  Keep the jackets at hand and the hopes for better high.

Sunday, April 6, 2025-SW Michigan-No Warm Up For Us

Sunday, April 6, 2025-SW Michigan-No Warm Up For Us

Currently 39 with an average wind from the NE of 2 mph. Feels like 39 degrees. Dew Point 19, Barometer 30.12, Humidity 43%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:16 am, Sunset 8:14 pm.

Mostly sunny with a high in the mid 40s. NW winds round 5 mph becoming W in the afternoon.

Partly cloudy with a 50% chance of snow showers. Low in the lower 30s. SW winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 25.

No sign yet that this is April. Spring might be in the air, but not necessarily here. Looking for the chance of snow showers yet tomorrow. Seriously? This is not the spring that we’ve been waiting for. Cold Monday and Tuesday but a tad warmer after that. Let’s hope this is the end of the wintry stuff. Goodness knows we’ve had more than our share. Even a late spring we’d be happy with at this point. But it would be nice to have some sort of spring before it’s suddenly summer. In the meantime, keep bundled up and wishful. Eventually sunshine and warmth will be ours.

Saturday, April 5, 2025-SW Michigan-Cool Tomorrow, Colder After That

Saturday, April 5, 2025-SW Michigan-Cool Tomorrow, Colder After That

Currently 39 with an average wind from the NE of 8 mph. Feels like 37 degrees. Dew Point 34, Barometer 30.34, Humidity 78%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:19 am, Sunset 8:12 pm

Mostly cloudy with a 30% chance of rain. High in the lower 50s. N winds 5-10 mph becoming NW 10-15 mph in the afternoon with gust to 25.

Partly cloudy. Low in the mid 20s. NW winds 5-10 mph with gusts to around 20 in the evening becoming light.

Cooler tomorrow and then downright cold on Monday and Tuesday. Look for the chance of some snowflakes on Monday. Will this never end this year? We keep wishing that’s the end of it but then again comes yet another bout of cold with snowflakes. This is, after all, April and we’re good and sick of wintry stuff. Hopefully after Tuesday, the temperatures will once again rise and we’ll be getting into the warmth we are expecting and hoping for. Fingers crossed.
