Wednesday, April 12, 2023-SW Michigan-Sunshine Galore

Currently 59 with an average wind from the SSW of 5 mph. Feels like 59 degrees. Dew Point 44, Barometer 29.89, Humidity 53%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:05 am, Sunset 8:21 pm.

Sunny today with a high in the mid 70s. SW winds 1-20 mph with gusts to 35.

Clear overnight with a low in the mid 50s. SW winds 10-15 mph with gusts to 30.

Going to be breezy but oh such nice temperatures will be ours for the next 3 days. Even Saturday will be warm, but rainy and that will bring in a week of not quite so nice weather to look forward to. In other words, enjoy the heck out of today through Friday. It’s the kind of weather we dream about in the middle of our miserable winters. Spring is ready to bloom, the sun is shining, breezes mixing things up a bit and we  could not ask for more. Well…we could. But why?

Tuesday, April 11, 2023-SW Michigan-Sunny 70s For Us

Tuesday, April 11, 2023-SW Michigan-Sunny 70s For Us

Currently 55 with an average wind from the SSW of 4 mph. Feels like 35 degrees. Dew Point 35, Barometer 30.01, Humidity 43%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:07 am, Sunset 8:20 pm.

Look for some great temperature and welcome sunshine over the next 3 days. Unfortunately, we’ll end up paying for it with a rainy weekend. Still warm on Saturday but a drop in the temperature for Sunday along with the chance for that rain. Figures, huh? This is going to cool off the beginning of next week but hopefully we’ll warm back up again before too long. In the meantime, here’s 3 lovely days for us.

Lots of nice days ahead this week and still looking at the possibility of a rather windy day on Wednesday.  Nice right up until – dare I say it – the weekend. For now it does appear as if next Saturday and Sunday may be wet ones. But of course, we all know how quickly and thoroughly things can change by then. In the meantime, enjoy each and every sunny day we do get.

I hope you all have a lovely Easter Sunday.

Nothing but lovely weather coming our way for the next week. Plenty of sun shining and the temperatures will gradually rise well into the 70s. Not a single thing to complain about with this forecast. We all know how fast things can crop up here in Michigan to put a crimp in our weather expectations, but so far looks like nary a single thing in line anxious to assume that role. Just weather to enjoy getting out and about in to start those inevitable springtime clean ups.

Thursday, April 6, 2023-SW Michigan-Missed Bad Storms Again

Currently 36 with an average wind from the SW of 4 mph. Feels like 27 degrees. Dew Point is 30. Barometer reading is 30.11. Visibility is 10 mi. Sunrise 7:16 am, Sunset 8:14 pm.

Mostly clear. Low in the upper 20s. W winds 5-10 mph with gusts to 20 bec9oming NW overnight.

Once again we lucked out and missed out on what could have been potentially bad storms. No complaints about that. Except for a couple of good rains and some thunder I didn’t see much of anything around here. Looking at plenty of sunshine coming our way. Not overly warm for the next couple of days but it’s on the way. We should be hitting the 60s soon and next week the 70s start to show up. Sure anxious for that. Seems like it’s forever getting here.

Wednesday, April 5, 2023-SW Michigan-Dangerous Weather Day

Currently 61 with an average wind from the S of 3 mph. Feels like 61 degrees. Dew Point 63, Barometer 29.49, Humidity 100%, Visibility 6 mi., Sunrise 7:17 am, Sunset 8:13 pm.

Look forward to some sunny days coming our way after we get through this mess. Today be careful and pay attention to any weather alerts issued. Our chance of a tornado isn’t super great, but the threat is there all day long. Something can pop up very quickly. And the danger from lightening is very much with us all day, so stay aware of what’s going on.

Tuesday, April 4, 2023-SW Michigam-Prepare For Possible Rough Weather Tomorrow

Tuesday, April 4, 2023-SW Michigam-Prepare For Possible Rough Weather Tomorrow

Currently 43 with an average wind from the ENE of 5 mph. Feels like 39 degrees. Dew Point 43, Barometer 29.84, Humidity 100%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:19 am, Sunset 8:12 pm.

Windy with a 40% chance of rain with a slight chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon. High in the mid 50s. E winds 15-20 mph with gusts to 30 increasing to 20-30 mph with gusts to 45.

Windy with a 100% chance of overnight rain and a slight chance of thunderstorms. Low in the mid 40s. E winds 20-30 mph with gusts to 45 becoming S 15-25 with gusts to 35.

A good chance for some rain and perhaps some thunderstorms today and tonight but a much better chance tomorrow. In fact, it would be wise to keep an eye on things tomorrow as we could be in for some severe weather, maybe even conceivably a tornado in the works. In other words, don’t plan on much of anything tomorrow except for staying safe from the weather. Temperature tomorrow will likely hit 70 degrees with an abrupt drop for the next day. We are all aware that means harsh weather will in all probability be included. Just be careful and watchful.

Seems as if rain will be moving in later today and linger on through Wednesday. Wednesday could present us with a temperature near 70 degrees. And with some possibly severe thunderstorms to go with it.  Just keep an eye on the weather and be ready for whatever we get. At least we should be rain-free this morning.
