A few sprinkles left over from the overnight rain greeted the sunrise. Small pockets of blue provided an occasional splash of sunshine. It was an mostly cloudy and breezy day. Fishtown and Greater Downtown Leland were crowded with Fall Frenzy people.
Clear and crisp this morning at sunrise, cold but not too cold. Today was a color touring day, unfortunately rain is predicted for tomorrow.
A beautiful beginning to a colorful day. The color is at peak along the shoreline but not as brilliant as in past years. This weekend should be good for touring but for the rain predicted for Saturday.
Dense dark clouds at sunrise moving in from the southwest produced a few drops of rain in Leland as thunder sounded north. Temperatures in the mid sixties were welcomed as the rain moved out of the area to the northeast. Not a bad at all.
Not as nice as yesterday, but not the worst. Another one of those “little bit of everything” days with some raindrops in the AM, sunshine at noon and overcast to mostly cloudy later. Leelanau County is reaching peak color this weekend with temperatures in the mid fifties, sunshine Thursday thru Saturday. Possible showers Saturday PM.
Another everything you can think of day with dark drizzly clouds at sunrise with an occasional snowflake.

Early afternoon we toured the Lime Lake, Maple City area looking for color and found a few nice spots, but the peak is still a week away.
Another one of those days that had everything Mother Nature could bring. Deep dark clouds with pockets of blue and billowing whites. Drizzle at times with periods of snow. Temperature in the forties with wind gusts in the twenties. Leelanau County color is shown on TV at 50% with the peak predicted next weekend.

The morning began with incredible cloud formations to the east over Lake Leelanau. The ever changing sky continued all day. This weekend the “Peepers” should be rewarded with color that gets better as the day gets longer.
The day began with “clearing in the west” and by noon another spectacular Leelanau Day. Today’s only downside was that I lost a lens out of my glasses somewhere around Van’s Beach. Driving home after our morning walk, I couldn’t figure out why my right eye wasn’t focusing. Duh!, how can you not know when your lens falls out. … Read more »
