Greetings and welcome!
August already! Golly where did summer go? The good news is that we have 5 Saturdays in August. The bad news is that we have 5 Saturdays left before September, and this is one of them.
We have had kind of an unusual summer for weather, and the recent past is no exception. It has been cool, and so far we have only had one 90 degree day to my knowledge. We have been under the influence of an upper level low pressure system up by James Bay. As it pinwheels counter clockwise, it keeps the cool air from the north coming along with the occasional disturbance that brings a line of showers or storms. It sure beats 90 and humid.
The nice weather looks like it will continue into the weekend, along with a daily chance at a line of storms that can happen on any summer afternoon. Look for highs in the upper 70s and lows in the mid-50s.
We have events this weekend. First up is the Bear Point Sno-Cruisers float trip. That is this Saturday. They get together early and by about 10 they figure out shuttles upstream. People float down the Menominee River and enjoy the day, eventually landing at Bear Point for more fun and friends.
Here are more-
Family Fun Day and corn Roast at Townsend Town Hall Saturday 11-6. Food, refreshments,, raffles, and kid’s sawdust pile.
