Metro Detroit weather: Another beautiful day with plenty of sunshine

Tuesday highs in upper 70s

DETROITGood Tuesday morning!

Today’s sunrise was at 5:59 a.m.

It’s back to work for many of us, but what a pleasant Memorial Day weekend it was! The “first official weekend of summer” felt like spring -- but, as you’ll read below, the “second official weekend of summer” will feel a lot like the middle of summer ...

But today will simply be yet another beautiful day, with plenty of sunshine and highs in the mid to upper 70s. Southwest winds will blow at 4 to 8 mph.

Tuesday’s sunset is at 9:03 p.m.

Clouds will increase Tuesday night, especially in the south, with lows in the mid to upper 50s.

Your week ahead

Wednesday will feature more clouds, with a scattered shower and possibly a rumble of thunder in the afternoon. Highs will be in the mid 70s. Shower chances continue Wednesday night, with lows in the upper 50s.

It will be mostly cloudy with a possible shower on Thursday, and highs in the mid 70s. At this point, the computer models are backing off significantly on the amount of rain we could get Wednesday and Thursday. In fact, rain amounts now look to be well under a quarter-of-an-inch. That won’t cut it and, with another hot, dry stretch coming our way, drought conditions are going to worsen.

It will become partly cloudy Thursday night, with lows in the upper 50s.

Friday will be partly cloudy with a couple of pop-up showers possible in the afternoon. Highs will warm into the mid 80s. Friday night will be mostly clear, with lows in the mid 60s.

Weekend preview

The weekend continues to look mostly sunny and hot, with highs in the upper 80s. This pattern may be with us through Wednesday of next week.
