Is that Greenfield Vilage?
-
That is a crazy view of that fire. It is going to be a long summer out there.
-
How does that compare to the bank thermometer?
-
GRR is at -1.4° below normal heading into the final day.
-
Looks like we are going to finish June with a negative temperature departure for the month. A warm period at the beginning and end of the month couldn't overcome an incredibly pleasant middle part. It would take something like +42 departure today to bring us back to normal. It might feel like it with the humidity today, but that is a different story.
-
Looking like once it arrives the heat might be here to stay for a while according to the GFS.
-
Dew point was in the mid 30's this morning. Not something you normally see in this part of Michigan in the latter part of June.
-
A few days ago there were model forecasts of record low barometric pressures for the month of June out of the current system. Anyone know if that is verifying?
-
You've had more rain today that I have had all month.
-
I was just a period of short heavy rain and lightning/thunder when it came through my area.
-
I have a large one of those in my hay field. I lost one side of it about 5 years ago but it is massive. They are fragile but can turn into impressively large trees given the right environment.
-
Pretty big jump in the D0 category this week.
-
The weekly drought monitor is going to start being of interest across a wide part of the sub given the dryness. We need some rain soon.
-
You aren't married are you. Wives tend not to be so fond of this idea.

There is a forum for the Philly area. Feel free to post Philly stats there. As for me, this month is -3.1 so far through May 26. I don't think this month will end up in the + departure column after a warm March/April.
-
We were +4.3 and +4.1 for that timeframe. It was a warm two months here for sure.
-
Amazing how different the UP is compared to the lower peninsula.
-
Topped out at 54MPH gust at my house. Windy, but nothing exceptionally strong for this area.
-
Welcome to the west side of the state
-
Only lasted 20-25 minutes but like other mentioned, quality lightning show!

Potential Sever Weather Outbreak 4/27/2026
WestMichigan replied to pen_artist's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Nearly the entire SE corner of my county is without power. I recorded a peak gust of 19MPH before the electricity went off. Someone else must have had a much higher gust nearby because that would cause parts of 2 counties to lose power. -
Is it because that is intended to be an overlay layer and the gray checkerboard area is transparent and so it can render overtop another background layer?
-
Two reports of tornadoes in my part of the state. The one earlier mentioned around Carson City and another near Otsego and Plainwell that crossed US-131. Just lots of rain IMBY. My county was briefly under a warning but I don't believe anything ever touched down.
-
After Saturday being absolutely perfect, yesterday was warm but once again crazy windy. I recorded a 65MPH gust yesterday afternoon and spent about 5 hours straights with winds gusting over 40MPH on a consistent basis.
-
And 2013-2014 was near record setting or record setting for many in the Midwest and doesn't even make their top 10. it is a completely differently place up there.
