Murphy's Weather

Currently 55 with an ESE wind of 6 mph. Feels like 55 degrees. Dew Point 47, Barometer 29.78, Humidity 80%, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:25 am, Sunset 8:53 pm.

Mostly cloudy with a 40% chance of rain High around 60. E winds 10-15 mph with gusts to 25.

Mostly cloudy with a 30% chance of evening rain becoming partly cloudy overnight. Low in the lower 40s. NE winds 5-10 mph in the evening becoming light.

Considering all the misery the day after day rounds of storms and tornadoes happening in the south, our uneventful weather seems a blessing. Yes, indeed, it could be warmer and nicer but all things considered, we’ll take this and be grateful. Look for some sunshine maybe Friday, Sunday and perhaps Tuesday, but then be ready for rain most every single day next week. Might be a good week to do some spring cleaning or tackle some closets or drawers or whatnot. Anything inside while the rain keeps everything outside wet. Then fingers crossed maybe some warmth will finally come to us after such a  dismal week. But like I said, at least we aren’t facing severe weather and that is most certainly happy news.

Currently 59 with an average wind from the W of 7 mph. Feels like 59 degrees. Dew Point 51, Barometer 29.69, Humidity 67%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:26 am, Sunset 8:52 pm.

Sunny with a high in the lower 70s. W winds 10-15 mph with gusts to around 25.

Partly cloudy in the evening then cloudy with a 40% chance of rain. There could be a slight chance for a thunderstorm. Low in the upper 40s. NE winds 5-15 mph with gusts to around 25.

No damage in my area at all but a sad reminder yesterday that Michigan isn’t immune to the dangers of a tornado. The Portage area was hit hard. Lucky no deaths, something everyone can be grateful for. Tornado damage isn’t as usual in Michigan as it is in the south, but it can and has happened. Pays to pay attention to storm warnings.

No rain today, but rain tomorrow. In fact for the rest of the week the every other day for rain is the rule. Then once we get past Sunday – which for now looks dry – we’ll be looking at rain every single day. Not a happy thought, but it is what it is. At least for now. Just be prepared.

Currently 64 with an average wind from the SE of 6 mph. Feels like 64 degrees. Dew Point 43, Barometer 29.73, Humidity 50%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:27 am, Sunset 8:51 pm.

There is a marginal risk for severe weather today.

90% chance of rain showers and a thunderstorm. High in the upper 60s. SE winds 10-15 mph with gusts to 30.

Partly cloudy with a 50% chance of overnight showers and thunderstorms Low in the lower 50s. SW winds 5-10 mph with gusts to 20.

Not a very comfortable day going on for us today. Chilly. Which means very likely the severe weather forecast for south of us won’t be much of a bother here abouts. Usually when we get severe stuff it’s hot, humid, with a cold front moving in. Feels very much as if that cold front has already arrived. Not appreciating a week as cool as this one in the month of May. Since I’m not exactly in charge of the controls, we’re stuck with this. But not happy about it.  In any case, watch for some storms to move in later today, early tonight.

Currently 61 with an average wind from the E of 6 mph. Feels like 61 degrees. Dew Point 45, Barometer 30.06, Humidity 62%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:28 am, Sunset 8:49 pm.

Partly sunny becoming mostly sunny. High in the lower 70s. E winds 19-15 mph.

Mostly clear overnight with a low in the mid 40s. E winds 5-15 mph.

Nicely sunny today but watch for some rain tomorrow. In fact, if it holds together as predicted, we should continue with a sunny, rainy day alternation for a while. And next week – yeah, I know, it’s a week away – we should be back in the 70 degrees after a week of mostly 60 degrees. Warmth is on the horizon – hopefully.

Currently 59 with a NE wind of 5 mph. Feels like 59 degrees. Dew Point 48, Barometer 30.02, Humidity 86%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:30 am, Sunset 8:48 pm.

Partly cloudy until midday then clearing. High around 70. N winds 5-15 mph.

Mostly clear with a low in the mid 40s. N winds around 10 mph becoming E overnight.

I don’t know. The weather know-alls and be-alls are knocking themselves out telling us how sweltering hot we’re supposed to be – or at least are going to be. Not exactly sure what they’re looking at, but from here all I see is cool weather ahead – and looking back, one of the most disappointingly chilly springs ever. I realize not everyone is happy with hot weather, but I know I sure am and I’m just not seeing it happen anytime soon around here.  Looking at the next week I’m seeing some rain, clouds, minimal sunshine, and cool temperatures. Not exactly fitting in with the weather gurus predictions so far. Not even close.

Currently 64 with an ESE wind of 6 mph. Feels like 64 degrees. Dew Point 58, Barometer 30.02, Humidity 89%, Visibility 5 mi. Sunrise 6:31 am, Sunset 8:47 pm.

Partly sunny. Patchy fog until midday. High in the upper 70s. E winds around 10 mph becoming SE.

60% chance of rain with a slight chance of a thunderstorm. Low in the mid 50s. S winds 5-10 mph becoming W overnight.

So – where is the sunshine? We were promised sunshine – well, maybe not exactly promised but strongly encouraged to expect it. Silly to put any stock in the weather forecast, right? Way too often things go awry. Like our missing morning sunshine today. Alas…At any rate, except for some rain tonight, no weekend rain. At least that’s what we’re told. Tomorrow is expected to be partly sunny – and dry. Sunshine for Monday, too. But then seeing rain coming our way for the next 4 days after that. In other words, look for a mostly wet week ahead.

Currently 64 with an average wind from the S of 3 mph. Feels like 64 degrees. Dew Point 61, Barometer 29.94, Humidity 100%, Visibility 7 mi., Sunrise 6:32 am, Sunset 8:46 pm.,

80% chance of rain with a chance for a thunderstorm until midday. High in the low 70s. W winds 5-10 mph becoming NW in the afternoon.

Partly cloudy overnight. Low around 50. NE winds 5-10 mph.

The rain should clear out later today and won’t revisit until about Tuesday. Still looking like a dry weekend. Watch for some pretty hot temperatures to be with us tomorrow. In fact, we could see an 80 degree day. Sunday won’t be that warm though. And in fact, after about next Wednesday, we will drop back down into the 60 degree range for the week. For those of us longing for warmth, it won’t be all that welcome but nothing to be done about it but wait it out. Which we are good at with all the practice we’ve had.

Currently 63 with an ESE wind of 7 mph. Feels like 63 degrees. Dew Point 47, Barometer 30.02, Humidity 58%, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:34 am, Sunset 8:45 pm.

Mostly cloudy with a 40% chance of afternoon rain. There is a very slight chance of some severe weather later on. High in the mid 70s. SE winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 20 in the afternoon.

70% chance of rain and thunderstorms overnight. Low in the upper 50s. SE winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 20 in the evening.

Our sunshine may vanish later on this afternoon when some rain could move in to replace it. Good chance for rain overnight and tomorrow but the weekend is still looking good. Some very nice warm temperatures are going to be with us until about next week Thursday when they’ll take a bit of a tumble. We could even see an 80 degree scattered in there. Sound fine to me. Bring it on. I’m more than ready for the warmth.

Currently 68 with a WSW wind of 6 mph. Feels like 68 degrees. Dew Point 55, Barometer 29.8, Humidity 60%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:35 am, Sunset 8:44 pm.

Partly sunny with a 30% chance of morning showers becoming mostly sunny in the afternoon. High around 70. W winds 10-20 mph with gusts to 30.

Partly cloudy with a low in the mid 40s. W winds 5-10 mph with gusts to around 20 in the evening becoming light

Looks a bit like we’ll be dropping back into the 60s next week, so enjoy our 70 degree days as we get them. As of now, it looks as if the weekend will be bringing sunshine – maybe no rain. That would be a treat. After that appears to be days of sun, days of rain, mixing it up.

Currently 54 with a 6 mph wind from the WSW. Feels like 54 degrees. Dew Point 44, Barometer 29.91, Humidity 67%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:36 am, Sunset 8:43 pm.

Sunny. High in the mid 60s. W winds 10-20 mph.

Partly cloudy with a low in the lower 50s. Light winds becoming SE 5-10 mph with gusts to 20 overnight.

Not overly warm today but bright and sunny. Tomorrow promises to bring us more sunshine before the 3 days after that will come with rain. So far, Sunday is still looking good. Fingers crossed. And we should be seeing a whole lot more 70 degree days this coming week. No promise that we’ll stay that warm but at least this next week will be good.
