4Warn Weather – Heat and humidity will affect the area again today, but we are seeing a sliver of improvement. The excessive heat warnings have been downgraded to heat advisories.

An influx of high clouds and an approaching front has caused a slight downward adjustment in temperatures today through Friday. Heat indices will still be in the 90s.

Conditions will be worse in the city, where nighttime lows will be the warmest closer to Detroit. However, the other notable improvement is that these alerts will be lifting at 10 p.m. on Thursday or earlier.
