Yesterday’s high was 76° and the low 62°. We have had only .04 of an inch of rain in the past 11 days. We had .24 on the 16th and 1.07 on the 14th. Our next chance of rain comes tomorrow late afternoon/evening.
Cool and dry air will continue to pour into Michigan today on the heels of gusty northwest winds. Highs today will be only in the upper 60s to lower 70s, followed by chilly lows tonight in the mid-40s to lower 50s. These readings are about 10 degrees below normal for this time of year.
Forecast Discussion
- Cool today - It will be rather cool for this time of year today due to nw flow caa and h8 temps down around 5 to 7 C. As a result high temps today will struggle to reach the upper 60s to lower 70s in spite of a fair amount of sun. - Moderating temperatures and mostly dry mid to late week - A consensus of latest medium range guidance and ensembles for the rest of the week continues to suggest temps will undergo a significant moderating trend Tuesday through Thursday. High temps will reach the upper 70s to lower 80s Tuesday as winds back to the sw. A cold front and upper shortwave dropping down from the northwest Tuesday night will bring a chance of showers and storms. Although moisture with this system looks rather limited an upper level pv max will likely help to boost pcpn potential over our northern fcst area. There really is no appreciable airmass change for Wednesday and high temps in the lower 80s are forecast with a high pressure ridge in control Wed/Thur. By Thursday h8 temps will moderate to around 20 C and this with sw flow waa will result in max temps reaching the upper 80s to lower 90s. The next system moving in from the NW will bring a chance of showers/storms late Thursday night into Friday. However moisture with this system again looks rather meager. So the overall forecast message for the week is to look for predominantly dry wx to continue along with a moderating trend of temps for mid to late week leading to abnormally dry/potential drought conditions given the forecast and dry antecedent conditions.

Gorgeous morning. Windows are open and the cool dry air feels amazing. We had dinner last night on the back deck. By the time we were done with our meal, it actually felt chilly. It has become very dry out but on the bright side, we have had so much sunshine lately. Have a great day, my fellow weather nerds.
I agree, Mark… I am also liking the September like weather, with some hot spells mixed in to keep everyone happy.
Yes it has been very sunny the last couple of weeks now. And with the high sun angle that sun has dried out the grass a lot. As long as it stays this dry it can both get hot and it can get very cool. So there can be some bigger temperature swings.
