Tuesday, Sept. 14, 2024-SW Michigan-Rainy Tuesday

Currently 59 with an average wind from the ESE of 2 mph. Feels like 59 degrees. Dew Point 62, Barometer 29.8, Humidity 97%, Visibility 6 mi., Sunrise 7:32 am, Sunset 7:34 pm.

70% chance of rain showers and a chance of thunderstorms. High in the upper 60s. E winds 5-10 mph.

Cloudy with a 50% chance of overnight showers and thunderstorms. Patchy overnight fog. Low in the upper 50s. Light winds.

Looking for rain most of the day and then again over the weekend now appears to be a rainy one. As of now, Saturday through Monday. Not a 100% surety but the opportunity is definitely there.

Looking like a major hurricane is set to roar into Florida this week. Aren’t we lucky when we talk about rain we’re talking an inch or so, whereas they’re expecting the possibility of major amounts. Michigan definitely has a lot to offer and the lack of hurricanes and earthquakes most certainly figure way up there on that scale.

A pleasant day today but look for rain tomorrow. None after that seen until perhaps Sunday. Nights and mornings now are beginning to feel more like fall. A seasonal chill is definitely in the air. Nothing drastic in our forecast for the next week, just Michigan gradually moving on into Autumn.

Not seeing any rain this morning but this afternoon may become a different story. Rain again on Tuesday is a possibility. 70 degrees seem to be what we’ll be looking at this week. Not a bad week coming at us for the first week of Fall.

Extremely foggy this morning but it’s supposed to burn off leaving us with a fine sunny afternoon. Still very warm, likely to get to around 87 today. This sort of ends with the rain coming in Sunday and again on Tuesday. We’ll be seeing 70 degree days this coming week with sun and clouds sharing our days. Looks like a comfortable week for us.

Currently 72 with an average wind from the SE of 1 mph. Feels like 72 degrees. Dew Point 60, Barometer 29.83, Humidity 75%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:28 am, Sunset 7;42 pm.

Partly sunny with a chance of showers and thunderstorms until midday then 70% chance the rest of the day. There is a slight chance some of the thunderstorms could be severe. High in the lower 80s. S winds 5-10 mph becoming SW with gusts to 20 in the afternoon.

Partly cloudy overnight with a low around 60. Light winds.

Our warm weather continues for the next few days as the Jet Stream is wandering around to the north of us, allowing the southern heat to flood into our area. This will change after Sunday as that Jet Stream will decide to take a dip leaving us to the north of it, putting a stop to the 80 degrees. A rather strong rain system is going to travel through our area today and then another one arrives about Sunday and that one will remain with us very likely through Tuesday. Saturday seems, as of now, to be the best day of this particular weekend.

Currently 68 with a 1 mph wind from the S. Feels like 68 degrees. Dew Point 60, Barometer 29.99, Humidity 56%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:27 am, Sunset 7:43 pm.

Sunny with a high in the mid 80s. Light winds.

Partly cloudy with a low in the lower 60s.Light winds becoming SE 5-10 mph overnight.

Looking for the chance for some rain tomorrow then again Sunday through Wednesday. We do need the precipitation, been quite dry longer than is safe. Too many dry leaves falling and sitting there ready to fuel for those  careless enough to be building campfires all over the place. A bit of rain to dampen things down is a good thing. In this case it will be putting an end to our 80 degree days and bringing in 70s for the week. Looking forward to it all.

Not much change in anything weather-wise, until the beginning of next week. Looking for a bit of rain and a dip in the temperatures into the 70s. By the end of next week, we could even see some 60 degrees. Big difference between what we’ve had and what we could get in a week.

Sunny with a high in the lower 80s. E winds around 5 mph.

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

Don’t be looking for any cool down for the next few days. Should stay warm right on through the weekend. Next week appears to be bringing us more comfortable days, temperatures in the 70s.  It might be that our hot days will be finished for the season after that. More fall-like numbers will make make plenty of people who have been suffering along in the heat mighty happy.  Bits of color beginning to show up here and there. Not much yet but we’ll be getting there soon enough.

Monday, Sept. 16, 2024-SW Michigan-Warm And Sunny Days Continue

Sunny. High in the upper 80s.  Light winds becoming E 5-10 mph in the afternoon.

Mostly clear with a low in the mid 50s. SE winds around 10 mph.

This coming week promises to stay well in the 80s with plenty of sunshine beating down on us. This could be the last week of solid 80s. I guess we’ll see, but right now it seems like it could be. Some rain coming in next week around Tuesday. Other than that, nothing much of change to report.

Sunday, Sept. 15, 2024-SW Michigan-Another Hot One

Sunday, Sept. 15, 2024-SW Michigan-Another Hot One

Currently 66 with an average wind from the SSE of 1 mph. Feels like 66 degrees. Dew Point 61, Humidity 75%, Barometer 30.22, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:20 am, Sunset 7:51 pm.

Sunny with a high in the upper 80s, SE winds 5-10 mph.

Mostly clear tonight. Low in the upper 50s. SE around 10 mph.

Another hot day, in fact, I think we could see 90 degrees today. Pretty close anyway. Still seeing no rain coming this next week, in fact by the time we do get any we’re going to really be in need of precipitation around here. Plenty of small dry brown leaves down already.  Traces of color is starting to show up here and there but nothing serious yet. It’s all coming eventually.  We do have to get through another fairly warm week before any cool down arrives and even then it doesn’t look all that drastic a drop. Anything will be an improvement at this stage. I believe most everyone is now ready for a bit of crispness to make an appearance in our air. Even me, I guess. I’m not exactly eager but willing, at this stage, to entertain the idea of it.
