Murphy's Weather

Currently 34 with an average wind from the S of 7 mph. Feels like 28 degrees. Dew Point 24, Barometer 29.87, Humidity 64%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:44 am, Sunset 7:55 pm.

Mostly sunny until about midday then becoming partly sunny. High in the lower 50s. SW winds 10-20 mph with gusts to 45.

70% chance of overnight rain with a slight chance of snow mixed in. Low in the mid 20s. SW winds 10-15 mph becoming NW with gusts to 30.

Might see some sunshine now and again but don’t expect any big temperature rises until well into the month of April. And snow seems determined to show up now and then in spite of our having had enough of it. Let’s face it, March is not going to go down as a lovely spring month.  Far from it. It’s destined to be known as merely an extension of a long winter. And again, that in spite of the fact that we’ve had enough of that season, too.  Expect some sunshine showing up tomorrow but cold in the 30s. And Sunday appears to be yet another chilly wet one. Alas…

Currently 34 with an average wind from the WNW of 8 mph. Feels like 27 degrees. Dew Point 31, Barometer 29.59, Humidity 100%, Visibility 1 mi., Sunrise 7:46 am, Sunset 7:54 pm.

Patchy morning fog. Snow showers mixed with rain showers until about midday then clearing. High around 40. NW winds 15-20 mph with gusts to around 40.

Mostly clear with an overnight low in the upper 20s. W winds 5-10 mph becoming SW with gusts to 25.

Look for a little warmth tomorrow but don’t bother searching for any in the following week or so. We simply will not be getting it. Temperatures in the 30s and 40ss seem to be the best we will be able to do. With mixed precipitation from time to time. This is NOT a nice spring nor does it appear to be in any hurry to  become one. Keep bundled up and hope for better weather down the line somewhere.

Feeling very sorry for those Robins and returning birds who left the south to head up to what they thought would be livable weather. Wrong! I hope they can find some way to keep warm and alive because Mother Nature sure doesn’t look to be in any rush to be helpful.

Currently 59 with an average wind from the SE of 3 mph. Feels like 59 degrees. Dew Point 44, Barometer 29.59, Humidity 56%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:48 am, Sunset 7:53 pm.

Party sunny until about midday then there is a 70% chance of afternoon rain showers. High in the mid 60s. S winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 30.

100% chance of overnight rain showers then mixed with overnight snow showers. Low in the lower 30s. S winds 10-15 mph with gusts to 30.

Sounds like some snow moving in tonight and tomorrow.  With a sharp drop in temperature. Peering ahead into our forecast it looks like our temperatures are going to be bouncing around on a trampoline. Up one day, then down the next- repeat. We’ll be seeing 30s, 40s and 50s for some time to come. Don’t be looking for any level spring-time weather for us this time around. We’ll be keeping our winter gear around rather than tucking it away like we’d prefer this s0-called spring.

Currently 48 with an average wind from the SSW of 2 mph. Feels like 46 degrees. Dew Point 35, Barometer 29.82, Humidity 58%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:49 am, Sunset 7:52 pm.

Partly sunny with a high in the lower 60s. SW winds 5-1-0 mph with gusts to around 20 in the afternoon.

Partly cloudy in the evening becoming mostly cloudy with a low in the lower 50s. SE around 10 mph becoming S overnight with gusts to 25.

Hard to see right now, but our March days are not out of the woods with 30 degrees and snow showers. It appears that we’ve in store for a lot of those over the next few weeks. First off this Thursday it seems we’ll get a glancing blow from Winter Storm Nyla. After that? Just plain winter hanging around refusing to depart and allow spring to get a steady foothold. At any rate, we’re in for a lot more chilly weather so don’t be in any rush to pack away the winter duds. And it pains me to say all of that. Dang! This is not one of the March months that are nice…could have been but alas…

Currently 30 with an average wind from the ENE of 4 mph. Feels like 30 degrees. Dew Point 23, Barometer 30.16, Humidity 77%, Visibility 10 mph, Sunrise 7:51 am, Sunset 7:51 pm.

Sunny until midday becoming partly sunny. high in the upper 4os. SW around 10 mp0h becoming 10-15 with gusts to 25 in the afternoon.

Partly cloudy becoming mostly clear overnight. Low in the mid 30s. S winds 5-15 mph with gusts to around 30.

Our day and night time is equal today. That will change by tomorrow but it won’t happen again for another 6 months.

Yesterday’s miserable cold weather ended up with what looks to be about a 1/2″ of snow covering everything this morning. Not exactly what we like to see on St. Patrick’s Day but it is what it is. In fact, tomorrow and the next day appear to be the best we’re going to be getting for the next two weeks. And…look for an unfortunate repeat of yesterday’s weather this coming Thursday.

Okay, so far March is not really being very nice. Alas…there’s always next year, I guess. I have hopes every year but this one simply is not falling into line as I’d hoped.

Currently 36 with an average wind from the SW of 3 mph. Feels like 30 degrees. Dew Point 36, Barometer 29.43, Humidity 100%, Visibility 7 mi., Sunrise 7:53 am, Sunset 7:49 pm.

100% chance of rain becoming afternoon snow. 1″ or less expected. High in the upper 30s. NW winds around 10 mph increasing to 10-15 with gusts to 30.

Partly cloudy with an overnight low in the lower 20s. NW winds5-10w with gusts to round20 in the evening becoming light.

At least the rain is cleaning up our atmosphere after yesterday’s unpleasant stuff. Dust, smoke…the air along with a high wind made it a pretty uncomfortable day.  Today we’re just dealing with cold – and probably snow later on. Not a delightful day at all. And look for a repeat of today around next Thursday. We can only hope that will be the end of the 30 degrees and snow because we’re certainly had our fill of it. Don’t look for any drastic warm up next week but temperatures in the 50s will be our norm. This is not the spring weather we’ve been dreaming of…not yet anyway. Eventually. We can only hope.

Currently 61 with an average wind from the SE of 5 mph. Feels like 61 degrees. Dew Point 56, Barometer 29.3, Humidity 90%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:55 am, Sunset 7:48 pm.

High Wind Advisory in effect until 8 pm today.

Windy. Mostly cloudy with a 20% chance of rain showers. High around 70. S winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 40 increasing to SW 20-30 mph with gusts to 50.

Windy tonight with a 90% chance of overnight rain. Low in the mid 30s. W winds 5-10 becoming NW 5-15 mph with gusts to 25.

Warm temperature today leading into wind, rain and a tomorrow at least 30 degrees colder with a good chance of seeing some snow mixed in with the rain. Not a nice scenario but it appears to be ours none-the-less. Back up a few degrees the beginning of the week leading into probably Wednesday with another chilly day and perhaps snow. Nothing is sounding wonderful here but we have hopes that eventually things will even out and we’ll get back to a comfortable spring.

Currently 50 with an average wind from he ENE of 4 mph. Feels like 48 degrees. Dew Point 31, Barometer 29.78, Humidity 47%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:56 am, Sunset 7:47 pm.

Partly sunny with a high in the lower 70s. SE winds 5-15 mph with gusts to around 25 becoming S 15-20 with gusts to 25.

Partly cloudy in the evening with a 90% chance of rain showers with a chance of a thunderstorm overnight. There is a marginal chance for something severe. Low in the mid 50s. S winds 10-20 with gusts to around 35.

Not quite the couple of sunny hot days we were imagining. We’ll be getting the warmth today and tomorrow, but likely accompanied by clouds and perhaps a thunderstorm or two. Still and all, enjoy the numbers in the 70s because Sunday is going to become rather a shocker with our temperature diving down into the 30s with a chance for some snow.  No way around it, just an ugly day. Monday will revive a bit so we just have to get through that one rotten day, but it’s sort of a blow considering we want to be done and done such numbers and precipitation.

Currently 37 with an average wind from the E of 1 mph. Feels like 37 degrees. Dew Point 24, Barometer 29.98, Humidity 57%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:58 am, Sunset 7:46 pm.

Mostly sunny with a high in the upper 50s Light winds.

Partly cloudy with a low in the upper 30s. SE winds 5-10 mph with gusts to around 20.

Today is going to be nice and the next couple of days will be even better. Look for some rain, maybe storms coming in late Saturday and overnight which will drag our temperatures down about 30 degrees. Sunday could be miserable in comparison. Could even see a wintry mix or some snow. Nothing to look forward to. That, of course, will not hang around. Things will begin to improve somewhat right after. Mother Nature just seems to enjoy tossing us a side slap now and again. The following week won’t be anything to write home about. In fact a week from today on Thursday of that week we could be looking at temperatures in the 30s with some snow. So, I reckon the best thing to do is enjoy today and the the next couple of days as much as possible. Then prepare to wait a bit for things like this to repeat. They will. Eventually.

Currently 32 with an average wind from the NE of 7 mph. Feels like 25 degrees. Dew Point 18, Barometer 29.88, Humidity 51%. Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 8:00 am, Sunset  7:45 pm.

Mostly sunny with a high around 50. E winds 5-15 mph with  gusts to around 25.

Mostly clear with a low around 30. E winds 5 mph.

Look for our day to get warmer this week right on up to Saturday. Sunday isn’t set to play nice, and that will bring the temperatures down next week to a lot less than we’re seeing now. And…I hate to say this…and granted it’s a long way in the future, but somewhere around the 20 someone had the audacity to mention snow. I know. I know. We don’t want to be hearing this. I’m hoping by the time that roles around it will have completely changed. Who know? It’s March in Michigan and we seem to get it all. At least this week, the all is nice and pleasant. Enjoy.
