Friday Morning Northland Forecast: 10/4/2024

Saturday Rain May Be On The Way
Karl Spring,

It’s pretty hard to complain about the weather we have had for the last couple months. For the most part, sunny, warm and a little dry. Yeah, that’s the only negative. If we could’ve sprinkled in an inch of rain about once a week, it would have been perfect! And, that’s why I’m at least cautiously optimistic about tomorrow. After…

Thursday Morning Northland Forecast: 10/3/2024

Frosty Friday On the Way
Karl Spring,

We had record high temps last Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Tomorrow morning, frost is likely across much of the area. Weather is never dull in the Northland! So, we’ve had plenty of heat, and we’ll have a cool start tomorrow morning. The one thing we could really use, is some precipitation, in any form, as continued fire danger is high…

Wednesday Morning Northland Forecast: 10/2/2024

Warm and Windy Wednesday
Karl Spring,

The weather is finally taking on more of a fall-like feel. After 3 consecutive days of record heat last week, we are now cooling down, and the winds are strong both in front of, and behind a series of cold fronts from the northwest that are moving through the area. That is typical in the springtime, and transitioning from summer…

Warm & Windy Monday
Karl Spring,

It looks like today will be the warmest day of the coming week. I’m all for that. We are in the second week of autumn, and it’s about time to cool things down a bit. We had 3 record highs in a row last week, from Thursday through Saturday. At this point, I don’t see us setting any new record…

Warm Weekend On The Way
Karl Spring,

It’s the last weekend of September. We are too hot, and we are too dry. Aside from that, it’s been a beautiful week of weather! Each day has been warm, and filled with abundant amounts of sunshine. What’s not to like? But, our average high for today is 62, and we topped out at 84, setting a new high temp…

A Sunny and Hot Friday
Karl Spring,

We may be off by a week. I was under the impression the Autumnal Equinox took place last Sunday, like 5 days ago. Yet, this week has clearly still been summer, with sunshine and highs in the upper 70s and lower 80s all week. In fact, we hit a record high temp of 81 degrees yesterday. And, today we are…

Sunny Thursday
Karl Spring,

No matter where you live on this planet, there will be some kind of natural hazard you will have to deal with. Up here, we have thunderstorms, tornadoes, blizzards, snow, ice, heat and cold. In Florida, they don’t have most of those things, but they do have occasional hurricanes some years. Right now, Hurricane Helene is menacingly moving toward Tallahassee,…

Wednesday Morning Northland Forecast: 9/25/2024

Sunny Wednesday
Karl Spring,

There is rain all the way from southern Ontario to eastern Texas. But not for us. Not today. As we look to the west, all we see is clear skies and sunshine, all the way to the West Coast. It’s beautiful weather, for sure. But, we could sure use about 2.6″ of rain in the next 5 days. I pick…

Tuesday Morning Northland Forecast: 9/24/2024

Sunny Tuesday
Karl Spring,

It’s raining in southern Ontario. It’s raining in central Iowa. It’s raining in Chicago. It’s raining all around us today. But we remain quite dry. We are between 2.5 and 3.0 inches below where we should be for the month of September. And, I don’t see any rain in the forecast to cut into that deficit in the next week….

Monday Morning Northland Forecast: 9/23/2024

Sunny Monday Forecast
Karl Spring,

The autumnal equinox arrived at 7:43am on Sunday. And amazingly, it feels like fall today! Last week, we had very warm high temps in the 80s, some 20 degrees above average. This week, now that it’s fall, we will instead have high temps right where they belong, in the mid 60s. They will warm up a little bit by midweek,…

Last Weekend of Summer
Karl Spring,

It really has been a nice long summer. Plenty of warm days, and lots of hot days! Nobody could complain that we got a short, cool or wet summer. In fact, just the opposite. We would have liked to have more rain! We are more than an inch short of precip for the year, and more than 2″ short for…

Final Friday of Summer
Karl Spring,

It’s the end of the summer as we know it, and I feel fine. The autumnal equinox arrives at 7:43am this Sunday morning, and not a moment too soon. Part of the reason the cold front was so effective in producing severe weather yesterday, is that the airmass in the midwest was so hot and moist that it was just…

Stormy Thursday Morning
Karl Spring,

It’s been a hot and dry week. We tied the record high for the date, of 84 degrees yesterday (set in 2000). And today, we are shooting for a high of 79 degrees. The record high for today is 90 (1984), so that seems safe for another year. The average high for today is only 66, so we’ve been living…

Warm Wednesday
Karl Spring,

Today is the third day in a row we will have highs in the 80s. Obviously, we are way above average, as we should have a high of 67 degrees today. The record high temp for today is 84, set in 2000. We are shooting for a high of 82, so we’ll be close! Starting tomorrow, we begin a cooldown…

A Warm Tuesday
Karl Spring,

The average high temp for today is 67 degrees. We shot way over that yesterday, with our high of 86 degrees. We didn’t quite hit the record high of 89, set in 1948. The record for today is 90 degrees, set way back in 1891. I don’t see us hitting that, either! We are also about an inch and a…

Sunny Monday
Karl Spring,

This is the final week of astronomical summer, which differs from meteorological summer. Astronomical seasons are based on the position of the Earth in relation to the sun. Meteorological seasons are based on the annual temperature cycle. So, meteorological summer ended on August 30th. Astronomical summer will end with the autumnal equinox, which arrives Sunday. So, this coming Sunday, summer…

Foggy Friday Night
Karl Spring,

This has been an easy week to forecast the weather, and a terrific week to enjoy it! We had partly to mostly sunny skies each day, with above normal temps, both at night, and in the afternoons. Today has been a little more grey, as strong winds off the lake have helped to produce thick fog all day, and this…

Foggy Friday
Karl Spring,

What has been a fantastic weather week is definitely ending with kind of a thud. East winds off Lake Superior have helped to produce thick fog near the lake, and even thicker fog up over the hill. With cloud cover holding things in place, it looks like it’s going to be a Foggy Friday for a few hours. Winds and…
