4Warn Weather – Parts of Southeast Michigan might get hit with severe storms on Tuesday, according to the National Weather Service.
Metro Detroit has been placed under a marginal risk (level 1 of 5) for severe weather starting Tuesday, June 25. It appears communities south of M-59 fit within that risk level, which is colored dark green on the map above and below.
Areas along the Ohio state lane, including the southeast edge of the state into Monroe County, have been placed under a slight risk (level 2 of 5 -- colored yellow) for severe weather. The rest of Michigan -- colored light green on the map -- was expected to see thunderstorms, but nothing severe.
Weather officials expected severe weather to be possible between 9 a.m. Tuesday and 8 a.m. on Wednesday, June 26, across southern Michigan, through the Midwest and into the Plains.
Thunderstorms, some potentially severe, were moving across Metro Detroit on Tuesday morning. Those showers and storms were expected to dissipate by about noon, according to 4Warn Meteorologist Ashlee Baracy.
Communities along the Ohio state line, however, could continue to see showers and some possibly severe storms through the afternoon and into the evening. Another round of storms was possible Tuesday evening -- although those storms will likely track along or south of the Ohio state line. Computer model data has showed consistently that the stronger storms along Southern Michigan’s border may stay in Ohio, Baracy reports.
More scattered showers and storms were possible midday on Wednesday.
