Murphy's Weather

Currently 25 with a 4 mph wind from the SE. Feels like 19 degrees. Dew Point 7, Barometer 30.06, Humidity 49%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:27 am, Sunset 6:25 pm.

Sunny with a high in the lower 30s. NE winds 5-10 mph becoming S in the afternoon.

Partly cloudy with a low in the mid 30s. NE winds 5-10 mph increasing to 10-15 with gusts to 30 overnight.

Keep looking for ups and downs in our temperatures. Some 50s some 30s. Perhaps some snow around  next midweek. This continues to be an interesting and unusual month of February.

Currently 34 with a 3 mph wind from the SSE. Feels like 28 degrees. Dew Point 32, Barometer 29.64, Humidity 79%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:29 am, Sunset 6:24.

Partly sunny with a 20% chance of afternoon snow showers. High in the lower 40s. N winds 5-15 mph.

Mostly cloudy with a 20% chance of evening snow showers then becoming mostly clear overnight. Low 15-20. N winds 5-15 mph.

Not bad, this small chance of snow showers. Look for more about midweek coming up – Wednesday or Thursday. Our temperatures, for the most past, are going to stay relatively high. Tomorrow will see a dip back into the 30s, and those dips and dives will continue to show up now and again for a while. Roller coaster numbers, which at least shouldn’t sneak up on us, as the weather stations are fairly accurate at letting us know when they highs and lows are coming for us. So far, a strange month of February. Let’s watch it play out and see what happens with the rest of it.  Watch for a full moon on the 24 – The Snow Moon – and get ready for a little less sleep. Research appears to indicate we don’t sleep as well during a full moon. Oh well…some folks, like me, don’t sleep well at any time, so nothing unusual for us :>)

Currently 34 with a calm wind from the SSE. Feels like 30 degrees. Dew Point 34, Barometer 29.75,  Humidity 97%, Visibility 7 mi., Sunrise 7:30 am, Sunset 6:23 pm.

Mostly cloudy until about midday with a 20% chance of rain showers then becoming mostly sunny in the afternoon. High in the lower 50s. NE winds 5 mph becoming N in the afternoon.

Mostly clear with an overnight temperature around 30. Light winds becoming NW 5-10 mph.

February continues to pretend like it’s March, or even on some days, April. This is perfectly acceptable to most of us and we’re willing to go along with it. Except for a few notable events, this year’s month of February has been extraordinary. Makes you wonder, doesn’t it, what that portends for our Spring? My fingers are crossed that it just keeps on keeping on, getting nicer and warmer as it goes along. No backsliding. I reckon we’ll see how it goes as it goes.

Currently 45 with a 5 mph wind from the SSW. Feels like 39 degrees. Dew Point 32, Barometer 29.96, Humidity 52%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:32 am, Sunset 6:22 pm.

Partly sunny with a chance of overnight sprinkles until midday. High in the mid 50s. SW winds 10-20 mph with gusts to 30.

Partly cloudy becoming mostly cloudy with a low in the lower 30s. W winds around 10 mph in the evening becoming light.

A fair chance of some rain tonight and tomorrow and then a few days of our temperatures dipping back into the 30s. Never fear – they’re gong to be back up in the comfortable zone quickly. Weather conditions continue to be out of the norm for a Michigan February. Hopefully, March will remain with the program and be nice ’cause….are you ready? March Could Be Nice. Maybe this year it actually will be.

Currently 30 with a 4 mph wind from the SSW. Feels like 23 degrees. Dew Point 27, Barometer 30.22, Humidity 61%, Visibility 8 mi., Sunrise 7:33  am, Sunset 6:20 pm.

Sunny with a high in the upper 40s. S winds 5-15 mph.

Partly cloudy tonight with a low in the mid 30s. S winds 10-15 mph.

Going to have some decent temperatures here in Michigan for this year’s month of February.  50 degree range – that’s not our usual run of the mill February weather. Look for a dip in the numbers about Friday and Saturday, but then it rebounds. In fact, this roller coaster affair with our temperatures appears to be our routine. Not bad at all considering what it could be this time of year. Just doesn’t appear to be any snow in our forecast for the foreseeable future. Let’s hope that stays true.

Not just us enjoying what appears to be an early spring. The Cherry Blossoms are blooming in Japan already. Even there things are ahead of schedule. Nothing quite that flamboyant here, but we’re doing our best.

Currently 23 with a SSE wind of 3 mph. Feels like 16 degrees. Dew Point 21, Barometer 30.18, Humidity 70%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:34 am, Sunset 6:18 pm.

Partly sunny until midday then becoming mostly sunny. High around 40. S 10 mph. winds becoming SW in the afternoon.

Partly cloudy with a low in the mid 20s. Light winds.

Bright and sunny out there this morning but no question but that it’s chilly. Went out to feed the critters this morning and it felt like…well, February. We could build up to a 50 degree day on Thursday but then it takes a nosedive back into the 30s over the weekend. Still, this is not bad at all for a Michigan February. Long as we can see some sun shining, it feels fine. Cold or not.

Currently 32 with a 10 mph wind from the WNW. Feels like 19 degrees. Dew Point 23, Barometer 29.72, Humidity 80%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:35 am, Sunset 6:17 pm.

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

Partly cloudy with an overnight low in the lower 20s. NW winds around 10 mph in the evening becoming light.

Well, not real quick, but it is going to be warming up. We’ll be seeing some 40 degree days, maybe even 50s very soon. Getting some rain rather than snow. It all sounds good to me. Except for a few exceptions, February, this year, hasn’t been all that bad. May that continue to the end and then March be even better.

Currently 19 with a 4 mph wind from the WNW. Feels like 9 degrees. Dew Point 10, Barometer 30.06, Humidity 78%, Visibility 9 mi., Sunrise 7:37 am, Sunset 6:15 pm.

Mostly cloudy with a 30% chance of snow showers. High in the upper 20s. W winds 10-20 mph with gusts to 30.

Mostly cloudy with a 20% chance of snow shower in the evening becoming partly cloudy. Low in the lower 20s. W winds 15-25 with gusts to 35.

Going to be nippy today and tomorrow but we can look forward to some 40 degree days next week. Might even see a glimpse of the sun now and then. As of now, nothing harsh in our future, which sounds fine to me.

Currently 27 with a 4 mph wind from the WSW. Feels like 21 degrees. Dew Point 17, Barometer 30.11, Humidity 71%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:38 am, Sunset 6:14 pm.

Cloudy. High around 30. NW winds 5-15 mph.

Partly cloudy with a 50% chance of snow showers. Low 15-20/ MW winds 5-15.

Chilly enough to keep our snow ground cover in place for a while. Should warm up a bit next week, but don’t be looking for any 70 degrees. Do look for some snow showers perhaps overnight. Maybe Saturday night.

Currently 31 with a 5 mph wind from the SW. Feels like 27 degrees. Dew Point 31, Barometer 29.77, Humidity 99%, Visibility 4 mi., Sunrise 7:40 am, Sunset 6:12 pm

Morning snow showers that should taper off in the afternoon remaining cloudy with increasing winds. High 36. WNW winds 10-20 mph increasing to 20-30 mph with higher gusts possible.

Some overnight clouds. Low 21. WNW winds 10-20 mph.

Winter Weather Advisory in effect until Thursday 11:00 am.

Although the weather channels all seem to be calling for a few inches of snow, I woke up to 5 1/2″ in my backyard and it’s still snowing. Take it from me, having shoveled a path out to where I scatter critter food, it’s a heavy, wet snow. Not fun at all.  Look for a bit more possible Friday and Saturday night. And then again about this same time next week look for more of a winter mess. February has become more true to form than it’s been. Alas….
