Good morning everyone.

Disappointing end to Michigan's season BUT it was a great run and they provided some very entertaining games during the season, especially in the tournament. I don't really watch basketball and I couldn't pull myself away from the television during their games.

It rained pretty hard here for a while yesterday so the majority of salt should have washed off the roads. Thunderstorms for today and tomorrow.

Good morning everyone!

POWERFUL storm system making its way across the midwest today dumping a lot of snow and some very very strong thunderstorm!
Very severe Storms today with a moderate risk of some strong tornadoes as well so everyone stay safe.


As for the rest a system also moving off of the northeast will push put into the Atlantic today. and some showers for the Pacific Northwest as well.

The snow is caused by the Jet Stream dipping very low into parts of Arizona/New Mexico which is very rare, it lets temperatures from Canada make it's way down.



I've posted this site before but a very very good site to use to see Current weather is:

Tornadovideos.net - The Chase

It is a very accurate Radar and you can watch Live footage of storm chasers going after storms. Plus it shows where the strong storms are predicted as well as general thunderstorms. check it out.

Everyone have a very good and SAFE tuesday!

Good Morning friends. Mike sorry to see your allergies are kicking up. I have em too and take meds year round for them. Mornings are the worse.

Flames will take 3 days I don't know how long Mason Auto body will need her for the clear coat work. I am hoping all goes as planned

I've been on there before, cool site! Severe weather has always interested me a lot.

So there was a warm front that pushed through yesterday through Michigan's lower peninsula and there was a point during the evening when Flint was 50 degrees and Monroe, ~70 miles south of Flint, was 72.

Yeah once you cross that front-line the temp drops pretty dramatically.

Good morning MCF'ers...its my favorite time of year, the flowering trees are in full bloom, daily temperature has been 66* (perfect), no severe storms yet, no withering heat, gardens are getting started, Monte looks beautiful with no pollen falling on her shiny white body!

Glad to see you back Mike!

Going to install the steering wheel buttons today & I'll post a step by step installation (with images) to help out our fellow members , maybe start up with a little sanding underneath to begin the rust removal. Or I'm just going to wash the car.

Ya know what, washing sounds good. Its covered in dirt & pollen.
I got such an itch to customize right now!!! Having no money sucks..
