Tuesday Morning Northland Forecast: 8/20/2024

Another Perfect Summer Day!
Karl Spring,

It’s hard to complain about a week in August that is full of sunny days with highs in the 70s. So, I’m just going to enjoy it, and say, “Thanks!” The high pressure situated over us will continue to bring us sunshine, light winds, and perfect temperatures. The average high for today is 76. While we will be a tad…

A Summery August Week
Karl Spring,

With the exception of the Air Quality Alert til noon today (thanks to fires in Canada), this will be a perfect late August week of weather! The average high and low for today is 76 and 55, and that is almost exactly where we will be for the next 5 days. We are a little above normal in rainfall, for…

Friday Night Northland Forecast: 8/16/2024

Another Marvelous Weekend!
Karl Spring,

To start the weekend, we will have both an Air Quality Alert (smoke from Canada) and a Dense Fog Advisory in effect Saturday morning. But, the weekend will definitely improve from there. There is also a 30% chance for light rain Saturday morning, but I didn’t want to pile on! The stubborn low pressure system that’s been bugging us since…

A Warmer Weekend
Karl Spring,

I thought it was great that we got 1.25″ of rain on Thursday! That was much appreciated by my dry, dusty lawn that I mowed on Wednesday. We had been pretty dry for about two weeks, so the moisture was quite welcome. But now, it’s time for the weekend, and with half of August in the rearview mirror, we need…

Some Welcome Rain
Karl Spring,

After four straight days of sunshine and August warmth, it’s time to green up the Northland with an inch or so of much needed moisture. And, why not? Most of us are at work for the next two days, and as long as the weekend weather looks great (which it does!), bring on some rain to help the grass, flowers…

Sunny Today, Rain On The Way
Karl Spring,

All good things must come to an end…for awhile. Today is our 4th consecutive day of sunshine and warmth. And, it will also be our last, until the weekend. We have been living under a massive high pressure area since Sunday. Now, two low pressure systems are rolling out of the plains states, and heading to the Northland. A couple…

Another Perfect Summer Day!
Karl Spring,

You might call these the ‘dog days’ of summer. It’s sunny and warm, a little humid, and with light winds to take the edge off. But, that sounds a little negative. I think these are the most perfect days of the whole summer! In a few months, we will be longing for days like this, when we didn’t have to…

Monday Morning Forecast: 8/12/2024

Karl Spring,

We had a hot end to July and a cooler than normal start to August. This week, as we head into the middle of the month, it’s a return to typical summer heat. The average high for today is 77 degrees. And that is right about where we will be for the next three days. A large, strong area of…

A Weekend Warmup!
Karl Spring,

The average high for this time of year is 77 degrees. We haven’t seen a day that warm since last week! After a couple more cool and breezy days, we will finally get back up to seasonal temperatures starting with the second half of the coming weekend. A low pressure system stalled over the eastern Great Lakes region will keep…

A Couple Cool & Breezy Days
Karl Spring,

We went a couple weeks with above average temps and sweaty dewpoints. Now, we’re going thru a few days of well below normal high temps. The average high for today is 77 degrees. We won’t see that til next week. It’s hard to find that “Goldilocks weather,” where everything is just right! We are about to come under the influence…

A Little Rain, Please!
Karl Spring,

My lawn has pretty much stopped growing. It’s been plenty warm out, but it’s been so dry these last few weeks, that my grass hasn’t grown in two weeks! I would be just fine if we get a half inch or more of rain in the next 24 hours. Thanks to a low pressure system coming out of the Dakotas,…

Cooler Than Average Week
Karl Spring,

After having above average temps all last week, we’ve flipped to the other end of the thermometer, as this week will be mostly below average temps. The average high for today is 78 degrees, and we will be a bit below that, with a high of about 74. The rest of the week we’ll have high temps between 68 and…

A Much Cooler Week
Karl Spring,

Remember the last couple weeks, when each day was hazy, hot and humid, with dewpoints reaching the low 70’s? That is so yesterday’s weather! That airmass has been replaced with Canadian high pressure that is bringing our high temps down to the 70’s (where they should be), and dewpoints down into the 50’s, which is much more comfortable for all…

The Heat is On...For Two More Days
Karl Spring,

July was a hot one! And, it felt like the heat and humidity would never end. But we are now past the peak heating period of summer, and the days are getting shorter. As a result, our seemingly endless streak of hazy, hot and humid days is finally coming to an end. This weekend, two cool fronts will make the…

Tuesday, July 30, 2024, Morning Forecast

Karl Spring,

When the weather remains largely the same for long periods of time, there is a manner of predicting the weather called “persistence forecasting.” Until some powerful meteorological force, like a strong high or low pressure system, or a significant cold front blows in, the weather simply won’t change much. And, neither will the forecast. As you have noticed, that’s pretty…
