Currently 68 with an average wind from the WSW of 3 mph. Feels like 68 degrees. Dew Point 49, Humidity 51%, Barometer 29.91, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:11 am, Sunset 9:07 pm.

Clear with an overnight low in the lower 50s. Light winds.

Not a bad day today, tomorrow and Saturday. Unfortunately, the Memorial Day Weekend looks to be a rain out. Not unusual for a Michigan holiday to have bad weather, but doesn’t make anyone happy, anyway. From here, it’s hard to tell just how rainy it’s going to be but the forecast doesn’t bode well. The rainfall varies from site to site. On one, Sunday looks to be dry until after 2:00 in the afternoon. That seems to be the only bright spot in the entire weekend forecast. And we all know how that can change. Frankly any outdoor activity could be iffy at best. Alas….

Currently 64 with an average wind from the WSW of 7 mph. Feels like 64 degrees. Dew Point 56, Humidity 67%, Barometer 29.69, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:12 am, Sunset 5:06 pm.

Party sunny with a high in the lower 70s. SW winds 15-20 with gusts to around 30.

Mostly clear. Low in the lower 50s. SW winds 5-10 mph with gusts to 25 in the evening.

No precipitation due today or tomorrow but likely some rain coming on Friday. Might be clear on Saturday but as of now Sunday and Monday could well bring us rain. A rainy Memorial Day weekend isn’t exactly what anyone wants, but hey….this is Michigan and any holiday has to be regarded as iffy when it comes to celebrating outdoors. Such is life I reckon.

Currently 63 with a 1 mph wind from the S. Feels like 63 degrees. Dew Point 60, Humidity 100%, Barometer 29.87, Visibility 0.58 mi., Sunrise 6:13 am, Sunset 9:05 pm.

Mostly sunny. Fog early. 20% chance of afternoon showers and thunderstorms. High in the mid 80s. Light winds becoming S 5-10 mph with gusts to around 20.

Partly cloudy with a 70% chance of overnight showers and thunderstorms. Low in the mid 60s. S winds 10-15 mph with gusts to around 30.

An interesting bit of thunderstorms last evening with the chance of a repeat performance tonight. Temperatures still holding in the 80s area but that won’t last for long. Could end up with a few days dipping down in to the 60s, mostly 70s coming up. Unfortunately looks like a rainy Memorial Day weekend. Maybe or maybe not. Different ideas from various weather sites. For the most part looks like a rainy Sunday and Monday but I guess we’ll just have to wait and see. Umbrella handy just in case.  Or at least grill in to the carport.

Currently 72 with a 3 mph wind from the W. Feels like 72 degrees. Dew Point 50, Humidity 47%, Barometer 29.93, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:13 am, Sunset 9:04 pm.

Mostly sunny today with a 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms developing. High in the mid 80s. SW winds 5-10 mph becoming E in the afternoon with gusts to 30 mph.

60% chance of overnight showers and thunderstorms. Low in the lower 60s. SW winds 10-15 mph becoming W 5-10 mph.

We may, for now, be on the outside line of the severe weather sweeping along, but it would pay to pay attention during today and tomorrow. I think especially after dark tomorrow. But don’t ignore the possibilities existing for today. Our chance for severe storms, high wind, hail, possible tornadoes is very real even if our number is low. Tomorrow may offer a greater threat, but today is worth keeping an eye on things, too. There are lines of storms moving to the north and east and, like I said, we could be on the outside portion of that, but don’t underestimate what could happen. Just be alert and prepared.

By Wednesday our temperature will have dropped a bit and it won’t be quite so warm, but the chance for rain could continue. So far, Thursday and Friday are looking fair with some sunshine. After that, seems as if the opportunity for rain is going to move back in for days.

Currently 75 with a 2 mph wind from the SSE. Feels like 75 degrees. Dew Point 59, Humidity 61%, Barometer 29.93, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:14 am, Sunset 9:03 pm.

Sunny. High in the lower 80s. NW winds 5-10 mph.

Partly cloudy with a low in the upper 50s tonight. N winds around 10 mph becoming E overnight.

A nice warm day today with sunshine galore.  Sounds like 80 degree days coming in for the next several, but with the chance of some rain coming along with it. Then we drop back in to the 70s which I’m sure will feel refreshing to most after a handful of days well into the 80s. It isn’t summer, but it’s feeling like it today.

Currently 70 with a 3 mph wind from the SSE. Feels like 70 degrees. Dew Point 59, Humidity 56%, Barometer 29.88, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 6:15 am, Sunset 9:02 pm.

Sunny today with a high in the lower 80s. Light winds becoming SW 5-10 mph in the afternoon.

Partly cloudy tonight with a low in the lower 60s. S winds around 5 mph.

What a glorious day for all of us who love the warm weather. Look for similar temperatures Sunday through Tuesday. Tomorrow will bring us more sunshine but Monday and Tuesday’s warmth will offer the possibility of thunderstorms to go along with. Fine summery weather all around. I’m loving it.

Currently 66 with an average wind from the NW of 1 mph. Feels like 66 degrees. Dew Point 61, Humidity 84%, Barometer 29.8, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:16 am, Sunset 9:01 pm.

Partly sunny until midday then clearing. High in the upper 70s. W winds 5-10 mph.

Mostly clear with patchy overnight fog. Low in the lower 50s. Light winds.

Much welcome sunshine moving in today and giving us a wonderful weekend. One of the best. Of course we then have to pay our dues with the following three days bringing rain. But that’s the way of things. Looks as if we’ll be well into the 80 degrees Saturday through Tuesday then by Wednesday the temperature starts to drop back down. Nothing drastic but the 70s and a few high 60s will seem cool in comparison to what’s coming over the next several days. Just be ready for the fluctuation.

Currently 59 with an average wind from the SSE of 4 mph. Feels like 59 degrees. Dew Point 44, Humidity 53%, Barometer 29.86, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:17 am, Sunset 9:00 pm.

Mostly sunny until about midday becoming partly sunny with a 40% chance of afternoon rain and thunderstorms. High in the mid 70s. SE winds 5-10 mph becoming S in the afternoon.

70% chance of overnight rain showers with a possible thunderstorm. ow in the upper 50s. Light winds.

A small chance of some rain showing up on Friday, but look for a totally delightful weekend coming up. Sunshine and 80 degrees. Wow! Could not ask for better. In fact, the 80 degrees may linger on into Monday and Tuesday but then it’s accompanied by the chance of some rain. In other words, enjoy this weekend and get out and about if you can. It’s the sort of weekend we’ve been waiting for.

Currently 61 with an average wind from the ENE of 7 mph. Feels like 61 degrees. Dew Point 42, Humidity 52%, Barometer 29.85, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:18 am, Sunset 8:59 pm.

Sunny with a high in the lower 70s. NE winds 10-15 mph with gusts to 30 until about midday.

Mostly clear with a low in the mid 40s. E winds around 10 mph with gusts to 25 in the evening

Fairly cloudy early this morning but clearing to sunshine in the afternoon. Look for the chance for a bit of rain perhaps tomorrow and Friday, but as of now, our weekend is looking good. Plenty of sunshine should be ours. Let’s hope this forecast holds and that’s what we end up with. Would be nice to have an entire weekend full of welcome weather.

Currently 57 with an average wind from the E of 6 mph. Feels like 57 degrees. Dew Point 49, Barometer 29.84, Humidity 84%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 6:19 am, Sunset 8:58 pm.

Mostly cloudy with a 50% chance of rain showers. High in the mid 60s. E winds 10-15 mph.

Partly cloudy with an overnight temperature in the upper 40s. NE winds 10-15 mph.

Perhaps some rain today but look for sunshine tomorrow, maybe Friday. Also, we may only be in the 60s today but thankfully we’ll be back in to the 70s starting tomorrow. Warmer is nicer. The rain word starts to appear back in the forecast by Saturday and seems determined to linger around most of the coming week. Not necessarily a huge percent each day, but the chance for some seems to be there.

Hard to believe but the smoke situation from Canadian wildfires has risen its ugly head already this year. It’s been reported that there are already over 100  wildfires burning in Canada – many of them ‘out of control’. This is a bad thought for air quality for many of our states. I personally have to wonder what it is about Canada that it seems to be a country on fire with what seems to be a total lack of organization in control. What ever, it portends bad air for us before the season even gets going. Learning to live with this doesn’t seem like the best idea but obviously one that needs to be paid attention to.
