WestMichigan

Almost a complete whiff here. I had a trace and that is it. At least the air is better today.

That's a picture I didn't need in my head today.

Almost expect to wake up to one of those every day right now. Since it started we haven't missed a day yet. Hoping some day this week will not have an air quality alert!

I told you you didn't want anything to do with what was north of you. Hanging out in the mid to high 400's overnight. Looking for relief later today.

You don't want what is just north of you

AQI is 590 at the closest reporting spot I could find. Just flat out nasty and not getting better any time soon.

Pretty nasty out there this morning

Still squeaking by with only upper air smoke here now but it is coming.

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.
