MARSHMALLOW CLOUDS & TANGOING SEAWEED—IS THE WEATHER PLAYING PRANKS?!

Is That a Cloud...Or a Giant Marshmallow?! - A Grand Rapids Weather Report (by Bronbus Quitley)

Good morning, Grand Rapids! Or…is it good? Honestly, I’m looking out my window and it’s…well, it’s atmospheric. That’s a nice way of putting it, right? Atmospheric. It's September 23rd, 2025, and let me tell you, the weather is playing tricks on your eyes. I swear I just saw a cloud shaped like a giant marshmallow. A pink one. Maybe I need more coffee.

Anyway, official sources (you know, the people with the fancy radar and computers, not me and my gut feeling) are saying we’ve got a Dense Fog Advisory going on. Dense! Like, you could cut it with a knife! Not that you should cut fog. That’d be silly. But seriously, visibility is low, so if you're driving, slow down! Unless you're a professional fog navigator, of course. Those guys are incredible. They navigate by smell, did you know? Mostly damp earth and regret.

But that's not all, folks! Oh no, the sky is plotting something. They're saying scattered thunderstorms are coming our way today, with a 40% chance of rain. 40%! That’s almost half the day! Imagine all the puddles! I once tried to build a boat out of puddles. Didn’t go well. Turns out water doesn’t hold its shape very well. Who knew?

Tomorrow and Wednesday are looking pretty similar – more scattered showers. Seems like Mother Nature is just really into scattering things today. Like, she woke up and thought, "You know what this world needs? More scattering!"

They also say it’ll be warm, though. Highs around 75. Not bad for September. I heard a rumor that the warm weather is because someone accidentally left the sun on overnight. Don’t quote me on that, though. It came from a reliable source... my neighbor’s parrot.

Oh, and if you’re planning a beach trip? Check the forecast! The waves are apparently doing the tango with some rogue seaweed. It’s a whole situation. You can find all the official (and boring) details at https://weather.gov/grr. But honestly, just look out the window. It's much more entertaining.

So, grab your umbrellas, wear bright colors, and keep an eye out for marshmallow-shaped clouds! This is Bronbus Quitley, signing off, and reminding you to always question the weather. And the clouds. And everything, really.
