SUMMER IS GOING TO STICK AROUND (Photo by Lisa Maree Williams/Getty Images)
A September Heat Wave is forecast for the Metro Detroit area, After a wet and wild Summer at times. Summer will end like a Lion.
Summer wraps up exactly on Sunday, September 22. after 94 official days of fun. Seems to come and end so fast this year.

Right now, Michigan weather has been 74 degrees to 77 degrees. In just two weeks, the average high temperatures over southern Michigan are 71 degrees to 74 degrees. Don’t forget a couple of surprise chilly overnights so far.
Could We See Above Average Temperatures?
We are going to be 10 to 15 degrees hotter than normal this week and next week—highs are forecasted for each of the next ten days. You’ll notice mid-80-degree days.
The two-time yearly equinox would occur on the same day every year if the Earth followed the Gregorian calendar and took exactly 365 days to make a complete revolution around the sun. However, remember this year was a leap year. The Earth doesn’t strictly follow the rules of our man-made markers of time, and it takes 365 days and six hours on average to go around the sun. That’s why we have a Leap Day every four years.
Enjoy It While You Can Before The Winter That Is Predicted
What is the 2024-2025 winter outlook by Old Farmer’s Almanac and Farmers’ Almanac? The Old Farmer’s Almanac predicts a “gentler-than-normal” season with overall temperatures in the Northeast above average. January will be the warmest, with colder periods in mid-December and late February.
You and I know this is just a suggestion, and living in Michigan long enough to know everything is subject to change by the hour.
5 Hottest Personalities in the NFL Right Now
We can talk about the best quarterbacks or coaches or running backs in the NFL until we’re blue in the face. But, what makes the game really exciting to watch are the personalities behind those players and staffers. Of course, having a fun personality isn’t all there is in the NFL. We love watching these guys go at it on the field and witnessing their athleticism. We also love seeing expert coaches leading their teams to victories. But, having a really cool, larger-than-life personality certainly helps. So, what players have the best personalities in the NFL right now?
Before we get to our current list, let’s look at some of the most best personalities in the NFL of all time. Bleacherreport.com has a listicle out of the players with the most colorful personalities of all time. Topping that list is Terrell Owens. “Love him or hate him, T.O. has the most colorful personality,” they state in the article. “Over his career, he’s shown all the qualities: arrogance/confidence, drama (all of 2005 in Philadelphia), excitement, unpredictably, crying (that Tony Romo press conference) and humor.” That’s a good call. Coming in at No. 2 is the legendary Joe Namath. “Who else could get away with wearing sunglasses on the sideline?” they exclaim. “With the long hair, the occasional Fu Manchu and the playboy attitude, he was the most compelling figure in sports during the late 1960s and early 1970s.”
So, what about right now? I looked at the current season and picked a range of roles, from quarterback to coach to tight end. These guys have stood out this season for either their larger-than-life personalities or situations. Also, we discuss the current NFL in the latest episode of my podcast, “The Squad with Anne Erickson,” which you can listen to below. Subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts.
Patrick Mahomes
Patrick Mahomes, of course, is the star quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs. He’s considered the best quarterback of his era and possibly the next Tom Brady. But, aside from his skills, he also has a big personality. He has more than 6 million Instagram followers, and he posts a bunch of stuff up there, from football material to family photos.
Travis Kelce, the celebrated tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, is pretty much the most famous guy in football this season. Yes, it’s because of his relationship with Taylor Swift. I hate to make that a reason to have him named one of the best personalities in the NFL, but heck, even without the Taylor factor, Kelce has a huge personality that people love.
All eyes are on Dan Campbell this season, as the Lions all pulling off some incredible things. That’s not common for the Detroit Lions, either. But, Campbell has some of the wackiest ideas and quotes, and that makes him loveable. Remember that time he wanted a pet Lion at practices? I love this dude.
Bill Belichick needs no introduction, but we’ll introduce him anyway. He’s the former head coach and general manager of the New England Patriots. He’s had some rough years as of late, but nothing can take away his glimmering record. Belichick just tells it like it is. He’s incredible with strategies, and that really stands out with his coaching.
Jalen Hurts, the star quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles, is something of a hero on the field. But, off the field, he’s known for his deep, insightful comments that show he has wisdom beyond his years. He’s a major contender and personality.
