Chilly days and night. About on schedule. Looks to be temperatures in the 50s and 60s coming our way this next week. More color showing up all the time and more dead leaves on the ground. Mid October stuff, I guess.

A low pressure system is going to be bringing us overnight rain that will linger though Sunday. Perhaps Monday. At least it isn’t snow yet. A nice assortment of 50 and 60 degree days coming this next week. Maybe we could see 70 next Saturday but maybe not. Lots can change between now and then.

Friday, Oct. 11, 2024-SW Michigan-Most Days Getting Chillier

Currently 57 with a 3 mph wind from the WSW. Feels like 57 degrees, Dew Point 45, Humidity 63%, Barometer 30.09, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:52 am,, Sunset 7:05 pm.

Mix of sun and clouds today. High in the mid 70s. SW winds 10-15 mph with gusts to 30 possible.

Partly cloudy with a low in the lower 40s. NW winds 5-15 becoming NE 5-10 with gusts to 25.

Not a bad day, starting off rather chilly but I suspect most of our days will be doing that from now on…until eventually the chill will last all day. Not quite yet though. Look for a chilly rainy Sunday, which isn’t anything most folks want to hear. That pretty much rules out doing any outdoor tasks that some can only use Sunday to accomplish. Alas…not this week. Might see a few 70 degrees the ending of next week, but I wouldn’t be counting on it. Mostly 60 degree days ahead of us this coming week.

Not bad today and a couple of good ones to follow but look for rain on Sunday. Maybe Monday. We’re going to continue to get ups and downs in our temperatures ranging from the 50s to the 70s. At least for a while. Eventually that will change and lower numbers will start to fall into place. Enjoy what we have now is pretty good advise.

Wednesday, Oct. 9, 2024-SW Michigan-First Chance Of Frost Showing Up

Currently 43 with a calm wind from the NW. Feels like 43 degrees. Dew Point 41, Humidity 75%, Barometer 30.06, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:45 am, Sunset 7:08 pm.

Sunny with a high in the mid 60s. NW winds around 10 mph.

Clear overnight with areas of frost possible. Low in the mid 30s. Light winds.

Our nights are starting to get cool enough to begin the mention of frost. Make having the heat on feel pretty good. Looks like this weekend will be on the cool side with the chance for some rain showing up. The weather is changing – heading in the wrong direction for many of us. Not much to do about that but get ready.

Tuesday, Oct. 8-SW Michigan-Still Some Comfortable Days Ahead

Tuesday, Oct. 8-SW Michigan-Still Some Comfortable Days Ahead

Currently 52 with an average wind from the WSW of 2 mph. Feels like 52 degrees. Dew Point 43, Barometer 29.98, Humidity 58%, Visibility 10 mi. Sunrise 7:48 am, Sunset 7:10 pm.

Sunny with a high in the upper 60s. W winds around 10 mph becoming NW in the afternoon.

Mostly clear. Low in the upper 30s. Light winds.

A handful of comfortable days ahead of us until about Sunday and Monday. As of now, those look to be in the 50 degree range with possible rain, so not very appealing for being outdoors. Do try to take advantage of the days before that to tend to fall tasks that need to be taken care of. And while you’re doing so give thanks and feel very, very blessed that you aren’t in Florida right now. What they’re facing with Hurricane Milton won’t be a good thing for a state already in trouble from the last storm. This month of October is going to go down as bad for hurricane season. Heartbreaking for those living through it.

Currently 55 with an average wind from the WSW of 6 mph. Feels like 55 degrees. Dew Point 39, Barometer 30.08, Humidity 56%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:47 am, Sunset 7:12 pm.

Sunny with a high in the mid 60s. NW winds 5-15 mph.

Clear overnight with a low in the lower 40s. W winds 5-10 mph with gusts to 20 in the evening becoming light.

Starting to see overnight numbers in the lower 40s, even upper 30s starting to show up. Getting there, aren’t we? And this week continues to be one about perfect for being out there taking care of the many chores that need doing before the weather changes. Personally, I’m about done. One thing left to prepare for the coming of winter and the possibility of power going out. I do like to be prepared. Wish everyone was the same.  Anyway, do what you need to do while it’s comfortable out there. And if you’re of the praying folk, wouldn’t hurt to offer up a prayer for those in the path of yet another  hurricane. This one Milton. Looks like it’s building up to be a bad one in Florida.

Sunny with a high around 70. W winds 15-20 with gusts to 35.

Partly cloudy with a in the lower 40s. NW winds 5-15 mph with gusts to 30 decreasing to 20 overnight.

A beautiful day today but a bit windy. In fact, there is a Red Flag Warning out in case there are some foolish people busy burning leaves or whatnot – and there are ALWAYS some foolish people out there. Let’s hope not today because things are dry and with this wind, it wouldn’t take much to create a fire problem.

Looks like a fine week ahead. 60 degree days and plentiful sunshine. As of now, appears to be some rain coming next Sunday with a drop down into the 50 degrees the following Monday. I don’t think we’ll stay there steady but those days are going to start cropping up.

Partly cloudy with a 50% chance of overnight showers and thunderstorms. Low in the upper 50s. S winds 10-15 becoming SW 10-20 with gusts to 30.

Look for our temperature to dip into the 60s tomorrow and stay there for the coming week. A cooler week than we’ve had. As of now, it looks like next weekend could bring us a couple of 70 degree days, but they come about that seems to be it. No rain in sight for now for the coming week, just cooler temperatures. Getting to be fall-like out there.

Clear with an overnight low in the lower 40s. NE winds 5-10 mph becoming E.

Look for the next couple of days to be in the 70s but after that expect some 60 degree. Sort of a back and forth thing right now. Sooner or later the temperatures will be dropping down on a more steady basis. For now we get a mix. Jacket on? Jacket off? About the way it goes in the fall. Not seeing much in the area of rain for us yet. Lots of nice days to be out and about taking care of fall chores. Get ‘er done!
