Should Be A Nice Day in Mid Michigan, But More Rain on the Way

Tue, 11 Jun 2013 12:42:00 GMT

We had showers most of Monday morning but the rain ended by early afternoon and it wasn't too bad of a day. I did get some gardening done and a few more plants bought. Today is expected to be quite nice once the fog and clouds burn off, and temps should reach 80F. Then more heavy rain is in the forecast. There just seems to be no end to it this year although the mosquitoes are loving it. We can't walk outdoors without an air attack. But on the good side,...

One could almost say that our weather is boring. But on the other hand, it's typical for February in Michigan. The past four days have brought temps hovering around freezing, skies have been mostly cloudy, winds have been moderate, and there has been intermittent snow flurries. The forecast is showing that we could see quite a bit of sun tomorrow. That would be a welcome change.

We don't have much snow cover at this time. The only snow ...
