Good morning or good evening, wherever you may be, across the nation, and perhaps, across the world. It is just after 5:30 a.m. in "The City."

The current temperature is 54° under rainy, skies. Winds of 16 mph make it feel like 48°. Today's high-temperature forecast calls for 59º under those rainy skies with a 70% probability. The high-temperature forecast is about 6º warmer than yesterday. According to my DTWS, the barometric pressure is 29.15" and rising, indicating that fair-weather should be coming as soon as tomorrow to go along with a high-temperature of 69º.

Both the NWS and I are forecasting that the high-temperatures will continue in the 60s and perhaps the 70s from now on.

The sun will rise this morning @ 6:17 a.m. and it will set later @ 9:05 p.m.

A Lakeshore Flood Warning will be in effect until 10:00 a.m. tomorrow, while a River Flood Warning, will be in effect from late tonight until next Sunday. Finally, a Flood Warning is in effect until 3:30 p.m. today.

Erosion of beaches and dunes, with possible significant inundation of low-lying areas along the lakeshore and in river mouths, and road closures are possible. Piers, breakwaters, and unprotected shoreline will see hazardous wave action, and areas near Lake Michigan will see flooded roads and parking lots. It's spring in MI.

We had a slow day yesterday. The fur-children were reluctant to go out and they were content to wait for their meals to provide a break in their routines.

We worked the crossword from Friday's edition of the Grand Haven Tribune, did some reading, and ordered some books from The Bookman along with doing some indoor chores.

Mary made a great tasting dinner of vegan pepperoni quesadillas based, I believe, upon something she had read on Twitter™. The source of her inspiration doesn't really matter. The outcome was terrific!

Today, we have no specific plans. Rain will preclude much outdoor activity if the NWS forecast is correct. More editing, more reading, more playing of music, and more kitchen magic. Ciao.
