The wonderful, warm weather will continue through the weekend and beyond in Metro Detroit.
Southeast Michigan’s skies will be partly cloudy to mostly clear on Saturday night, but there is a chance of patchy fog. Lows will be in the upper 50s in Ann Arbor and the Thumb and the lower 60s in Detroit, Dearborn, Downriver, and Warren. Winds will be out of the east at 4 to 8 mph.
Sunday
Sunday will start with areas of morning patchy fog, which will mostly dissipate by 9 a.m. Then, it will be mostly sunny to partly cloudy for the rest of the day. Light wildfire smoke in the atmosphere will contribute to hazy skies. Fortunately, the layer of smoke will remain elevated high enough to avoid impact on air quality across Metro Detroit.

The light wildfire smoke will give Southeast Michigan some vibrant sunrise and sunsets due to smoke scattering light. You may notice that the sun appears more orange or red than usual.
