Thursday, March 28, 2024-SW Michigan-Some Sun Today, Maybe Tomorrow

Thursday, March 28, 2024-SW Michigan-Some Sun Today, Maybe Tomorrow

Currently 37 with an average wind from the W of 7 mph. Feels like 28 degrees. Dew Point 21, Barometer 30.09, Humidity 62%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:29 am, Sunset 8:04 pm.

Sunny today with a high in the lower 40s. W winds 10-20 mph.

Mostly clear overnight with a low in the mid 20s. Light winds.

Whatever sunshine we get today or tomorrow look to be about all we’re going to be seeing for about ever. Not much more than clouds, occasional rain, coolish temperatures in our forecast. I wish like anything that wasn’t the case, but checking every weather site I have access to, this is about the picture they all paint. I think we’re going to have to wait a bit for warmth and clear skies to be part of our world.

Wednesday, March 27, 2024-SW Michigan-No Sunshine, No Warmth

Wednesday, March 27, 2024-SW Michigan-No Sunshine, No Warmth

Currently 32 with WSW winds of 5 mph. Feels like 21 degrees, Dew Point 26, Humidity 89%, Barometer 29.92, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:31 am, Sunset 8:03 pm.

Mostly cloudy with a high in the upper 30s. W winds 15-20 mph.

Partly cloudy. Low in the upper 20s. W winds 5-15 mph.

Not a particularly pleasant day today. Look for some sunshine Thursday and Friday, rain on Saturday and maybe just clouds on Easter Sunday. But no great rise in temperatures yet. Eventually, but no just now.

Tuesday, March 26, 2024-SW Michigan-Rain Possible Storms Today

Tuesday, March 26, 2024-SW Michigan-Rain Possible Storms Today

Currently 48 with an ESE wind of 12 mph. Feels like 43 degrees. Dew Point 46, Humidity 86%, Barometer 29.86, Visibility 7 mi., Sunrise 7:24am, Sunset 7:54pm.

80% chance of rain today. Possible risk of tornadoes and wind damage. The wind will probably be the greater threat. High around 60.  S winds 15-20 with gusts to 40.

Mostly cloudy overnight with a 50% chance of rain and thunderstorms. Low around 40. S winds 15-20 with gusts to 35 becoming W 5-10 with gusts to 25.

Might as well prepare for a chilly day tomorrow a this stormy system is set to bring us back down into the 30 degree range for a day or so. We’ll bounce back but it’s getting tiresome to say the least that we get a few fairly comfortable days only to have to pay for them with a dip into the heavier jacket weather. Sooner or later – we keep saying and hoping – this pattern is going to break and we’ll be in the warmer weather pattern where we should be. In the meantime, prepare for rain and wind today, cold tomorrow.

Monday, March 25, 2024-SW Michigan-Clouds Today Rain Tomorrow

Monday, March 25, 2024-SW Michigan-Clouds Today Rain Tomorrow

Currently 41 with an average wind of 5 mph from the SE. Feels like 34 degrees. Dew Point 27, Humidity 60%, Barometer 29.92, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:35 am, Sunset 8:01 pm.

Mostly cloudy today with a high around 60. SE winds 10-15 mph with gusts to 35.

100% chance of overnight rain showers. Low in the mid 40s. SE winds 15-25 mph with gusts to 35 increasing to 45.

Today should be dry, but not tonight and definitely not tomorrow. Might get a few thunderstorms tomorrow. Of course, this tumbles our Wednesday temperature back down into the 30 degree range.  40s and 50s the rest of the week though. Look for rain again on Saturday. Easter Sunday will be cool, but no rain predicted so far. We seem to be in this weather pattern that hasn’t much variance in it – well, except for that miserable snow storm last Friday – but the rest is a rinse and repeat pattern. Will be nice to see the end of it.  And since all things must end eventually, I’m thinking this might change for the better too. Some day.

Sunday, March 24, 2024-SW Michigan-Enjoy A Bit Of Sunshine Today

Sunday, March 24, 2024-SW Michigan-Enjoy A Bit Of Sunshine Today

Currently 34 with an average wind from the SE of 5 mph. Feels like 25 degrees. Dew Point 18, Humidity 54%, Barometer 30.26, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7;36 am, Sunset 8:00 pm.

Partly sunny in the morning becoming mostly cloudy with a 20% chance of snow showers. High in the lower 40s. SE winds 10-15 mph with gusts to 25.

Mostly cloudy overnight with a low around 30. SE winds 10-20 mph with gusts to 30.

Not a bad little morning. A bit chilly but with sunshine peeking through every so often, we’ll take it. Look for a couple of fairly warm days coming up, but with rain. That’s okay. Beats snow.

Saturday, March 23, 2034-SW Michigan-Hopefully Our Snow Is Done

Saturday, March 23, 2034-SW Michigan-Hopefully Our Snow Is Done

Currently 25 with a NE wind of 5 mph. Feels like 19 degrees. Dew Point 23, Humidity 89%, Barometer 30.27, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:38 am, Sunset 7:58 pm.

Mostly sunny with a high in the mid 30s. N winds 5-10 mph.

Partly cloudy. Low 15-20. N winds around 5 mph becoming E overnight.

It would appear that we’ve had the last of the big snows. Some sunshine today, not likely tomorrow and still chilly. Monday and Tuesday will be bringing us 50 degree temperatures but also rain. Expect a day or so dipping down into the 30s or 40s, but hopefully most of our numbers will be in the 50s…and eventually better than that.  We have had enough wintry weather, even though it waited late to come around, enough is enough.

Friday, March 22, 2024-SW Michigan-Winter Weather Advisory In Effect

Friday, March 22, 2024-SW Michigan-Winter Weather Advisory In Effect

Currently 28 with a SE wind of 1 mph. Feels like 19 degrees. Dew Point 26, Humidity 100%, Barometer 30.2, Visibility 0.84 mi., Sunrise 7:40 am, Sunset 7:57 pm.

Winter Weather Advisory in effect until Saturday 12 am. Up to 7″ of snow possible.

100% chance of snow. Snowfall may be heavy at times. 3-6″ possible. High in the mid 30s. E winds 5-10 mph.

Mostly cloudy with a 50% chance of snow in the evening becoming partly cloudy. Low in the lower 20s. NE winds 5 mph becoming N.

It would appear we’re dealing with Winter Storm Ronnie. There is a Winter Storm Sawyer trailing behind, but fingers crossed not for our area. In the meantime, we could end up with 6 or 7″ of snow by the time this winds down. We actually never know here, because the brunt of storms usually slide to the south or north of us. For now, we’re getting snow. I haven’t noticed it being heavy so far, but of course that could change. Just be prepared and safe for whatever we do get.

Look for a bit of sunshine tomorrow and Sunday. It will be cold sunshine, but better than snow falling down on us. Be ready for that brief respite to slip right off into the possibility of a frozen mix Sunday night…and on and on it goes. Winter may have been reluctant to hang out with us when it should have, but here it is anyway, a late but persistent visitor. Like it or not.

Thursday, March 21, 2024-SW Michigan-Spring Snow Storm On The Way

Thursday, March 21, 2024-SW Michigan-Spring Snow Storm On The Way

Currently 21 with an ENE wind of 5 mph. Feels like 14 degrees. Dew Point 14, Humidity 66%, Barometer 30.32, Visibility 9 mi., Sunrise 7:42 am, Sunset 7:56 pm.

Mostly sunny today with a high in the mid 30s. NW winds around 10 mph.

Partly cloudy becoming mostly cloudy with an 80% chance of overnight snow. 1-2″ possible. Low in the lower 20s. Light winds becoming E 5-10 mph.

Enjoy the chilly sunshine today ’cause we sure won’t be having any tomorrow. Look for snow to develop tonight and linger on through tomorrow and probably tomorrow night.  Could end up with 5-6″ in all. Who knows? All we can do is hope this is the last spring snow storm for us this year. We could see some 50 degree days next week, but they will be scattered among lower numbers. We’ll get there – eventually. But for now we seem to have this faux winter to contend with. Color me not happy.

Wednesday, March 20, 2024-SW Michigan-Possible Snow Storm Coming This Week

Wednesday, March 20, 2024-SW Michigan-Possible Snow Storm Coming This Week

Currently 28 with a 10 mph wind from the NW. Feels like 16 degrees. Dew Point 20, Barometer 29.89, Humidity 91%, Visibility 9 mi., Sunrise 7:44 am, Sunset 7:55 pm.

Mostly cloudy with a 30% chance of snow showers. High in the lower 30s. NW winds 10-15 mph with gusts to 25.

Partly cloudy with a low 15-20 degrees. N winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 20 mph.

The March weather this year can’t get any crazier. Cold, snow…and it just keeps on keeping on. Possible peek at the sun tomorrow – possible – but still cold. And Friday? We could be in for a serious snow storm with inches of accumulation. This is just plain nuts. As of this moment, there is not one single positive thing to say about our current weather pattern. April can’t get here soon enough.

Tuesday, March 19, 2024-SW Michigan-Don’t Look For Weather Improvement

Tuesday, March 19, 2024-SW Michigan-Don’t Look For Weather Improvement

Currently 34 with a SSW wind of 11 mph. Feels like 23 degrees. Dew Point 24, Barometer 29.64, Humidity 72%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:45 am, Sunset 7:54 pm.

Mostly cloudy with a chance of snow flurries. High in the mid 40s. W winds 15-20 mph with gusts to 35.

Partly cloudy. Low in the mid 20s. NW winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 25.

No matter how hard I look or hope, I don’t see any improvement in this weather mess until after Easter. Seriously. This is about as good as it’s going to get. Chilly with occasional snow showers, frozen mix, etc. March is going to continue and depart on a forlorn note. Wish I had better weather news to pass on. Eventually. But not just now.
