The southeaster corner of Michigan, set on a series of beautiful lakes, has delightful summers and white winters. Spring comes in April and May when winter’s chill dissipates and temperatures begin to rise into the 50s although evenings still hover in the high 30’s. Sometimes there can be a last light dusting of snow in April but by May, days reach into the low 70s with evenings rising to about 50 degrees.  

Summer comes in June as temperatures rise to the high 70s-low 80’s and July and August are extremely agreeable with highs in the low 80s. Summer evenings stay warm, with temperatures in the high 50s and low 60s. As summer draws to a close, temperatures in September remain in 70s during the day but evenings become cooler and begin to move towards the lower 50s. Humidity all year long hovers around 70-80 percent in the mornings, but afternoon humidity goes down to about 50 percent, so the summer months stay pleasant and are never thick.  

As fall unfolds, October is still fine with temperatures in the low 60s during the day although evening temperatures move down to the low 40s. November days are in the mid 40s and evenings start to dip below freezing.  

White winter arrives in December and lasts through February, which are the coldest months when daytime highs only rise to 30 degrees and evenings fall in the low teens to low 20s. March signals the end of winter as days move into the mid 40s with evenings still around freezing and still some snow.  

The snowiest months are December through February with average snowfall of nine to 12 inches per month and occasional blizzards with strong lake snow effect. Lovely breezes blow all year long keeping the air clear and annual rainfall averages approximately 35 inches per year with two to three inches falling per month keeping everything green and fresh. The most rain falls in August with about 3.5 inches, the warmest month is July and the coldest month is January.
