  1. Low of 62 here this morning w/ 89 in the point for today. Heat advisories have shifted south of Upper Michigan. Hopefully a storm or two can materialize this afternoon.
  2. No, just a couple fans to circulate the air and dry the sweat. Currently 71/71.
  3. Still stuck in the clouds and fog, although point has 94 for the high today. It's the only 90+ temp in the forecast this week after yesterday's high temp busted by 22 degrees... .75" of rain the past 24 hours from a couple rounds.
  4. Day 1 of the heatwave is a bust here. Managed to make it to 70 so far. Socked in all day.
  5. Temps in Marquette County this morning ranging from upper 30's inland to upper 40's near shore, 42 here at the house. Probably the last sub-50 morning for a while. Hot and stormy looking good next week.
  6. Point has 90 and 92 for next Monday and Tuesday. Not sure the last time I had back-to-back 90's. MQT there is a non-zero chance that a Heat Advisory or more could be needed for portions of Upper Michigan, particularly in the west where the NBM is already hinting at high temperatures approaching 100 on Monday. We could see similar temperatures on Tuesday into the middle of next week as well, provided that enough sunshine reaches the sfc those days.
  7. Upper 50's @ noon with some light showers moving through over this way. Cool and damp. Looking forward to a real taste of summer next week.
  8. Another cool morning with upper 30’s at my place. Eagle Mine about 10 miles nw of me down to 31. Should see mid 60’s today and a bit warmer tonight w/ mid 40’s. Have about 6 weeks of good garden weather before the sun begins to sink behind the trees on the hill to my south and west, essentially shading my garden from 3 pm on. Rooting for a couple weeks of mid to upper 80’s and humidity between now and then.
  9. Waking up to a chilly 38 degrees. Cooler spots this morning being Eagle Mine, Doe lake, and Baraga Plains all sitting @ 31, Spincich Lake 32, and Ishpeming 33. Might squeak out a 70 today if clouds can hold off. Cool and unsettled for at least the next 7 days.
  10. 49 and cloudy with some light showers this morning. High should reach the upper 50's with a stout nw'trly breeze. Good day for a deep woods hike, bugs will be minimal.
  11. Great for splitting and stacking firewood, for the garden not so much.
  12. Low of 49 overnight marks the warmest morning low of the year at my place. A very warm and dry day on tap. Should reach low 80's.
  13. Started most of my veggie plants back in early April inside where I have a small grow room. There's something very satisfying about watching a plant sprout and grow when there's still 4' of snow otg. Annual flowers and a few other things I purchase from a greenhouse in Negaunee where I work each summer. Of course, I planted most everything yesterday when the forecasted low for last night was 44, but it was one of those sneaky cold nights I worry about, with an actual low of 37 here. Thankfully I covered everything with a frost cloth to be safe. Two more night of lows in the mid 40's then the nights begin to slowly warm. Sun and mid 70's today. Have only had .75 inches of rain for the month. Pollen is thick on everything. Leaf out is about 60-70% on most trees w/ the exception of the oaks which always lag behind.
  14. Cooler here today as well in the upper 60's and another night in the mid-40's likely. Against my better judgement I'm going to start planting in the garden. With this dry air, there's always a chance of a sneaky cold night, especially with the lake still chilly but with the already short growing season it's either now or never.
  15. Came across a random patch of snow today. It's at the end of a camp drive so it's remnants from a plowed pile, but impressive to see on May 28th, nonetheless.
  16. 38 here, 32 at Baraga Plains, and the cool spot again Eagle Mine at 29. Should top out in the mid-upper 60's with wall to wall sun.
  17. Beautiful day with a noontime high of 70. Lake breeze pushed just far enough inland to drop the temp here to 61 under full sun @5pm. Could stay like this all summer long as far as I'm concerned but 60's are not conducive to productive pepper plants.
  18. Similar up this way only with cooler nights.
  19. First 80 of the season, and about as warm as I like it. When it comes to heat I’m a puss.
  20. When I found this house, it had been sitting empty on the market for almost three years. The couple that built it in 2007 were in their late-50's at the time and had decided to retire here from Illinois because they enjoyed their yearly summer vacations to the area so much. Turns out, after two winters they would not face a third. He couldn't keep up with the amount and frequency of the snow at his age, and she fell into a deep depression during the winter months... ended up moving to Colorado Springs. I will never forget what the man said to me at closing in a weirdly ominous tone, I remember thinking at the time, "Just remember, if the forecast is calling for 1-3 feet, you're the 3". Almost 13 years later and I'm still here. A great looking day here, sunny 65/29 w/ a light breeze.
  21. BrianD said it best. A big pond, some latitude and it's a different world. Recovered nicely today with a high so far of 54, has since dropped a couple degrees with a light ne breeze. Better than yesterday.
  22. Very chilly as I head out this morning. Sitting at 24 here with lots of low to mid 20's being reported. Cold spot just nw of here @ Eagle Mine with 17. Milder tonight but still a chance of frost.
  23. 42 under full sun @ 3pm w/ a northerly breeze. The sun does take a bit of the nip out of the air but it's def chilly. Widespread frost/freeze advisories for the N lakes tonight. I don't usually plant anything until after June 1st tho, and even then it can be risky.
  24. The page has turned. Spring is in full swing. Reached low 80's here yesterday as the last patches of snow in ditches and swamps melted away. The only place where snow remains is around the pole barn where it slid off the roof all winter. Maples are starting to bud and patches of green are replacing the blah brown. The last 80 here was October 5th.
