Thursday, July 4, 2024-SW Michigan-Agreeable 4th of July Weather

Thursday, July 4, 2024-SW Michigan-Agreeable 4th of July Weather

Currently 72 with a 1 mph wind from the NNE. Feels like 72 degrees. Dew Point 69, Barometer 29.85, Humidity 71%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:09 am, Sunset 9:24 pm

Partly sunny with a 20% chance of afternoon showers. High in the mid 80s. Light winds.

Not a bad day of holiday weather for us. At least we’re not facing the deadly record breaking heat that California and Oregon is dealing with today. We’ll be warm but not unbearable. Look for a rainy Friday, then again the beginning of the week. So far, the weekend is still looking grand and dry.

Very close feel to the morning. Feels like it could and probably should rain. Whether it will or not remains to be seen. Seems as if we can look for a sunny day for our July 4th. Might be a hot one, but bright. Some rain coming in for Friday and as of right now, the entire weekend is looking dry. Should be a dandy.

Not overly warm today but it’s on the way, slowly. Tonight will be chilly again but not as much as last night. Seems like we’ll get rain on Wednesday and again on Friday. Thursday, the 4th is still looking dry. Fingers crossed it stays that way.

Partly sunny until midday then clearing. High around 70s. NW winds 10-15 mph with gusts to 25.

Clear. Low in the mid 40s. N winds around 10 mph with gusts to 20 in the evening.

Pretty chilly weather for the end of June. Wishing it would warm up but don’t see any major warm-ups in our near future. And tonight will feel like time to turn the furnace back on – and I might just for the night. Nothing I hate worse than being cold. Look for some rain on Wednesday and hope that it comes in on time leaving Thursday, the 4th, clear. Should, but we never really know until the fact.

Saturday, June 29, 2024-SW Michigan-Looking For Some Rain

Sounds like the possibility of some rain later today with a very slight chance for some severe weather. Tomorrow sounds sunny but on the cool side. Not sure yet about the weather for the 4th. Sounds like a lot of rain moving in early week. Will it clear for the 4th? Guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

Currently 68 with an average wind from the SSE of 12 mph. Feels like 68 degrees. Dew Point 55, Barometer 29.96 & falling, Humidity 67%, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:06 am, Sunset 9:25 pm.

70% chance of overnight showers and thunderstorms. Low in the upper 60s. S winds 5-15 mph.

What a difference this week. Feels downright nippy to me. Look for a chance of some rain later and overnight. Again tomorrow. Sunday is still looking clear but a tad on the chilly side. Doesn’t look like any major warm up in store. We should be in the 70s, perhaps lower 80 a few days, but nothing drastic. Should please those unfavorable to hot weather. Not me. I’m a fan.

Thursday, June 27, 2024-SW Michigan-Very Cool Start To Morning

Thursday, June 27, 2024-SW Michigan-Very Cool Start To Morning

Currently 63 with an average wind from the N of 12 mph. Feels like 63. Dew Point 47, Barometer 30.03, Humidity 60%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:05 am, Sunset 9:25 pm.

Sunny today with a high in the mid 70s. N 5-10 mph.

Partly cloudy tonight with a low in the mid 50s. Light winds becoming SE 10 mph during the night.

Felt more like fall than summer this morning when I woke up. Frankly, I miss the heat already and want it back.  Doesn’t look like that’s going to happen any time soon. Our temperatures look to be in the 70s or low 80s at best for the next week. Sunshine tomorrow, rain on Saturday, and sunshine again on Sunday. At least we’re getting a variety. Of sorts.

Wednesday, June 26,, 2024-SW Michigan-What A Different Morning!

Currently 75 with an average wind from the W of 7 mph. Feels like 75 degrees, Dew Point 65, Barometer 298, Humidity 76%, Sunrise 6:05 am, Sunset 9:25 pm.

20% chance of showers and thunderstorms. Mostly cloudy until midday becoming mostly sunny. High in the upper 70s. w winds around 10 mph becoming NW in the afternoon.

Mostly clear. Low in the lower 50s. N winds 5-10 mph with gusts to 20 in the evening.

Should be seeing some sunshine tomorrow and Friday, but rain coming in on Saturday. So far, Sunday is look good, if a bit cool. Was truly thankful for waking up to a calm, uneventful morning today as compared to the chaos of yesterday. My understanding is there are some people put out that sirens were heard when in effect we didn’t have a true tornado. Brutal winds that manage to snap trees like twigs certainly qualifies for needing a head’s up in the minds of most of us.  Take it from someone who used to have a park-like property that was reduced to land with broken or downed trees from straight line winds, they can be every bit as damaging as a tornado. Me? I’m grateful for the sirens going off. Knowing there are people weather-aware and ready to put out alerts.

Currently 70 with an average wind from the S of 14 mph. Feels like 70 degrees. Dew Point 66, Barometer 2973 and falling, Humidity 86%, Visibility 7 mi, Sunrise 6:05 am, Sunset 9:25 pm

90% chance of more showers and thunderstorms this morning becoming mostly sunny in the afternoon. High in the lower 80s, SW winds 10-20 mph becoming W 10-15 mph in the afternoon with gusts to 30.

Partly cloudy with  30% chance of overnight showers with a slight chance of a thunderstorm. Low in the mid 60s. W winds 10 mph with gusts to 20 in the evening.

What a bizarre morning. An hour of continuous thunder led into a violent wind with tornado sirens going off around 6:30. Haven’t been outside to see what happened but I could hear trees cracking and breaking so I suspect there is some damage out there.  Still a light rain outside with an occasional rumble of thunder. Supposed to see some sunshine later today but as of the moment, that seems doubtful. We will see some sunshine tomorrow and Thursday, but look for more rain on Friday and Saturday.  Sunday is still looking fine.
