We’re in the midst of one of those weird February warm spurts in Southeast Michigan, but that doesn’t mean winter is done with us.
The National Weather Service/NOAA released their look at the three-month outlook, including a look at temperature and precipitation probabilities for February, March and April, 2024.
The predictions are based on probability vs. normal averages. So let’s dive in.
