4Warn Weather – Keep eyes on the ground and sky this weekend.
A flood warning continues for the Huron River near Hamburg in Livingston County for the forecast of minor flooding. The river had reached the flood stage of seven feet on Friday afternoon, which could result in water reaching the foundations of homes along the river. It is forecast to crest at 7.4 feet on Sunday morning.
Air Quality Advisory will be in effect for most of Southeast Michigan on Saturday due to the expectation of elevated ozone. The advisory covers St. Clair, Livingston, Oakland, Macomb, Washtenaw, Wayne, and Monroe counties. The air quality may be “unhealthy for sensitive groups,” such people who live with asthma or other respiratory conditions. It is recommended for people with such conditions to limit or avoid strenuous outdoor activities, especially during the hottest part of the day.
Friday Evening
The isolated showers in Southeast Michigan will end Friday evening as skies clear over the region. Although the sky will be mostly clear, patchy fog will develop near the surface. Overnight temperatures will fall into the mid 60s. Winds will be out of the southeast and south-southeast around 5 mph.
Saturday
Areas of patchy fog will be possible Saturday morning. Otherwise, it will be hot, humid, and sunny as the day goes on. So, wearing a hat will come in handy for fans who attend the Tigers’ afternoon game against the Dodgers. A spotty shower may pop up near the shoreline, such as near Port Huron and over Southwestern Ontario. Temperatures will soar into the upper 80s in Detroit, Adrian, Canton, Westland, Livonia, Dearborn, Southfield, Royal Oak, Warren, Roseville and adjacent communities. Highs are forecast to be in the mid 80s in Monroe, Ann Arbor, Howell, Brighton, Clarkston, Macomb Township, New Baltimore, Flint, Lapeer, Sandusky, and Port Huron. Winds will be out of the south and south-southwest around 5 mph.
Saturday night, it will be mostly clear with lows in the mid 60s.
Sunday
The heat and humidity will go up a notch. Sunday will be partly cloudy with rain showers in the morning and afternoon. Pop-up showers and thunderstorms will be possible in the evening. Expect highs in the upper 80s. Mild overnight temperatures will only fall to the lower 70s.
Monday and Tuesday
Both Monday and Tuesday will be hot and humid with temperatures in the upper 80s to 90 degrees. The heat index will reach the mid 90s or higher in some areas. Conditions will be favorable for showers and thunderstorms as two air masses collide near Southeast Michigan. A few storms could become strong with heavy rain and gusty winds.
Wednesday through Friday
Metro Detroit will get some relief Wednesday as cooler and drier air flows into the region. Highs will be in the mid 70s to around 80 degrees for the remainder of the workweek in Southeast Michigan.
