weatherbo

Heard thunder/saw lightening during the night but it stayed south of me. Morning fog season is here. It's thick and drippy out. Hopefully it lifts at some point today.

Wouldn't take much. I still have warning points from 10 years ago.

Interior west spots should be looking pretty good by then. Far southern Houghton county around the Trout Creek area seems to peak the soonest, I've noticed... there's been light frost a couple times in that area already.

Breezy, pleasant afternoon in the mid-60's. Low's forecast to be in the upper 40's tonight, maybe as low as upper 30's in the favored cool spots if it goes calm. Noticing a few more trees turning... around 5-6 weeks away from avg peak.

It must be tore up there. Are you gonna post your time lapse vid?

Hope hawkeye and cyclone are ok

I think it bodes well for the rest of the country and will signal a trend in what most schools decide to do.

No one mentioning NYC deciding it's safe to reopen schools and students to return this fall? I mean, if NY can do it safely, most us po-dunk places should be able to.

Warming trend starts today. Overnight lows: imby 40 Stonington 31 Baraga Plains 36 Doe Lake 36 Champoin 37 Kenton 38 Randville 38 Wakefield 39 Marquette Sawyer 39

A little too close to the lake here for anything too chilly, only 45 for the low. Coldest interior locations. Possible frost adv's tonight Baraga Plains 33 Stambaugh 36 Wakefield 37 Watersmeet 37 Kenton 37 Paulding 39

Notice some color starting to pop up

Clouds held a good part of the night, then a sliver of clearing allowed the temp to fall to 47 here, Wakefield 40, Baraga Plains 36. Clouds in the process of filling back in. Will be another cool September-like day.

Nice chill to the air. Had to shut the widows... 53.7 degrees with a hvy mist/light rain. I would bet the w/c has even dropped into the upper 40's at times

Possible heavy lake effect rain in the forecast this weekend and MQT mentioning "risk of frost" Tuesday night in the traditional cold spots. Ready or not...

Can someone explain to me why all the extra money? Why weren't people just paid unemployment for 100% of what they were earning before the virus? I can understand hazard pay a little more but it just doesn't make sense to me to pay so many people an extra $600 a week, unless the goal was to keep the economy from completely tanking or an incentive to keep people home and things shutdown longer. Hope people spent wisely.

Wear a mask and social distance. Otherwise life should carry on without restrictions on where and when you can go.

I respect your opinion, but think you're completely wrong. Life cannot and should not cease to exist because a certain high risk group of people are susceptible to the virus. There are precautions and mitigation that can help reduce the spread until a vaccine. Shutting down the world and people's lives is not an option. It will cause more harm than good. Couch 'taters may not get this.

No offense to you Stebo but should we lock down until a vaccine is presented? If a mask helps prevent the spread, let's all strap one one and go about our business. Do you want airlines to go bankrupt, only to bail them out with our tax dollars? Guess I'm confused. Life has to go on.

Beautiful summer in full swing. Nice stretches of sunny, warm days and cool nights up to this point. Been busy roofing the cabin (and hopefully painting), getting firewood and taking care of the garden. Time sure does fly. Got a visitor last night after dinner. Grilling in the north woods, you never know what's lurking...lol This guys been here before. He'll be pretty big by Fall, eating up to 20 hours a day now. I just stay out of their way and they do the same.

Don't play the victim now, you've been pro-lockdown from the beginning, and I do understand that to a degree considering where you live, but don't hold us all to your standards and then cast judgement.

Yes there are hot spots in the country. The majority of MI counties tho, are just like here in the UP. The cases in MI are mostly in a "tri-county" area. You have to understand the frustration the majority of Michiganders feel who's lives have been not only disrupted (to say the least), but in some cases, changed forever... for a virus that didn't really affect the community they live in. There's two sides to every argument, and tbh, I'm a little tired of only one side being considered. Somehow, if I want to live my life, I'm then selfish and don't care about humanity. **** that. And **** your narrow mind.

There have been 104 confirmed cases in the entire UP. MOST of the 10 deaths(13 total up-wide) in Marquette county have been at a nursing home, as well as a good deal of the confirmed cases in general. I will wear a mask where required, but other than that I am living my life and enjoying my freedoms. If that makes me a careless egotistical asshole, good.

You're growing a mullet?

I took clippers and a #1 guard and just buzzed it. I've gotten use to it I guess. A sock hat outside is a necessity.

Maybe it's the same reason people are being triggered because you can go get a haircut.
