The official H/L yesterday at Grand Rapids was 62/33 there was no rainfall and the sun was out 100% of the possible time. For today the average H/L is 60/42 the record high of 82 was set in 1910,1938 and 1950. The coldest high of 35 was set in1930 the record low of 19 was set in 1976 the warmest low of 63 was set in 2007. The most rainfall of 1.32” fell in 1923 the most snow fall of 0.9” fell in 1972. Last year the H/L was 64/38. We had some things to do in Bay City yesterday so we took a road trip. Took the long way by going up to Big Rapids and then across M 20. I have to say the color is some of the best in a long time on that trip. The overnight low so far here in MBY is 33 officially it has yet to reach 32 or lower at Grand Rapids the next week looks to stay warm so the 1st night below 32 will be late this year.

Saw a couple decent sized wildfires in the fields yesterday on my way back from South Dakota… just crazy how such a large part of the Midwest is dealing with unseasonably warm and bone dry weather. The winds were crazy yesterday too, probably gusting up to 45-50 MPH at times in open areas, just a bad deal all around.

80s are once again possible next week. No rain in the near future. Next week, it will have been 2 months since our last measurable precip.

Some ensemble members are starting to get a little #kold. Or cold. However you want to put it
