Daytime high temperatures will be in the 90s (record territory) and with high humidity, the feels like temperatures will likely reach the triple digits. Warm, muggy nights with lows only in the 70s will not provide much relief for those who do not have air conditioning.

Please check on your loved ones and neighbors. During this time you want to reduce outdoor activity, drink plenty of water and wear loose, lightweight clothing.

Storms coming back

Scattered storms will also be possible before the extreme heat builds in. Friday afternoon from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. and again Saturday morning into the early afternoon with a lifting warm front.

Storm Prediction Center has areas north of I-94 under a marginal risk for severe storms on Saturday with wind and hail the primary threats.

Ford Fireworks outlook

The Ford Fireworks will be on Monday in Downtown Detroit and as of right now, pack the cooler with lots of chilled water!

You might want to also pack an umbrella, not to block rain, but rather to protect you from the sun! Sunny and hot with highs in the mid to upper 90s and feeling like 100 to 105 degrees.

We stay very warm through midweek, with increasing shower and storm chances on Wednesday and Thursday.
