What a weekend ahead! We’ll have quiet and mainly dry weather through the weekend as high pressure dominates the region.

This weekend is homecoming for both the University of Michigan and Michigan State University. Plan for dry conditions, sunshine, and seasonable temperatures with highs in the mid 70s.
