DETROIT – Mostly cloudy skies with a few morning flurries, and not much moisture to tap into today other than the lake effect machine still in effect.
Highs will hold in the lower 40s and will feel like upper 20s to low 30s at best with winds out of the west or WSW 5-15 gusting to 22mph. So we may see an occasional wave of lake effect rain and snow trying to make its way across the state and this will be more problematic for anyone traveling to or through SW Lower Michigan today.
Sunset is at 5:11 p.m.
We have a few mostly dry days ahead without much in the way of warming Monday and Tuesday. Clouds will begin to break apart a little bit tomorrow as Metro Detroit wakes up to temps in the mid and upper 20s with highs only in the low to mid 40s. Again, we will see a little more sun Tuesday than Monday, but it’s still chilly with winds SE 5-10mph and dry conditions.
Wednesday will start mild in the low 40s because a warm front will be moving up and over SE Lower Michigan and Southern Ontario and our highs have a chance at hitting 60F.
Wet weather will be closely following that Wednesday warm up, which means rain showers starting Hump Day afternoon and into Thursday. Some of the heaviest waves of rain will come late Wednesday and early Thursday and then a cold front blasts through dropping temps toward the end of our week.
Thursday temps will be falling through the low 50s into the 40s early and slowly falling into the mid 40s into the afternoon as the showers move on.
Friday looks bright but chilly with upper 20s early and low 40s for highs.
Saturday looks dry on the computer models but Sunday may be a different story.
Stay tuned.
