Early Thunderstorms To Begin our Day - Mid Michigan

Our day began with the rumble of thunder and a little rain.  We received 0.12" between 5:30 and 6 AM.   But right now, the sun is trying to make a showing through the cloud cover.  Temps aren't as chilly as yesterday morning when we plunged into the upper 30s.  Our overnight low remained in the upper 40s which is more seasonable and we did manage to reach the low 70s yesterday afternoon.  We may see 70F once again today but it may also be quite windy.
