Good Friday morning!  Conditions are fairly quiet around Metro Detroit with temps in the lower 30s falling slowly into the upper 20s this morning under cloudy skies and a few flakes and flurries. A cold front is pushing through as we speak which will keep those temps from moving very much through the day and that front will spark a few flakes and flurries, but the roads are in good shape and should stay that way even with isolated flurries and light snow chances. Lake effect snow showers in the Thumb will cause some tricky travel on the shorelines of Lake Huron this morning but most of Metro Detroit will only see remnants of that in the form of mainly flurries.

The Detroit Lions aren’t the only ones on the field getting a good workout in.

By now, there are no secrets or hidden layers to our Pure Michigan weather, so expect more of the same this Friday morning around Metro Detroit.

Here is the weather forecast for Metro Detroit.

Here is the weather forecast for Metro Detroit.

DETROIT – It’s mainly rain moving in this morning, but a switch to snow can be triggered at any point this morning, and at any point today. Again, we start with mainly rain and then a wintry mix of rain and snow. Some areas will see the switch to snow sooner and will get some accumulation of 1-2 inches today.

Light snow develops Saturday morning, and then light rain and snow is possible during the afternoon. Christmas week forecastIt appears that a modest weather system will produce another chance of light rain and snow on Monday, with highs near 40 degrees (5 degrees Celsius). However, those winds will blow from a southerly direction, which should boost temperatures into the mid 40s (7 degrees Celsius). Good luck with your Feats of Strength, and Airing Your Grievances…Rain showers develop Wednesday evening, then change to light snow overnight following passage of a potent cold front. Highs in the mid to upper 20s (-3 degrees Celsius), with wind chills in the single digits (-17 to -12 degrees Celsius).

If you read my weather article yesterday, I described how our early week storm is now a large upper level storm system roughly over James Bay. Since we are on the back side of that circulations, lots of upper level disturbances are rolling down the jet stream like roller coast cars on a track. Highs today in the upper 30s (4 degrees Celsius) north to low 40s (5 degrees Celsius) south. Lows in the mid-to-upper 20s (-3 to -2 degrees Celsius). Highs in the mid 30s (2 degrees Celsius).

If you enjoyed Thursday’s mild temperatures, then I think you’ll like today’s weather as well! Lows tonight will drop back into the mid 30s (3 degrees Celsius). Highs near 50 degrees (10 degrees Celsius). Highs should be near 50 degrees (10 degrees Celsius). November 20 Detroit weather triviaToday’s record high is 70 degrees (21 degrees Celsius), set in 1942.

DETROIT – We are starting our Finally Friday with lots of clouds and some lake effect rain showers near Lake Huron. Highs will struggle mightily today, as temps hold nearly steady in the low to mid 40s (5 to 7 degrees Celsius). Temperatures will fall into the mid 40s (7 degrees Celsius) during the early evening, so a couple of layers under the costume works well. We start the day with rain showers and temps in the mid 40s (7 to 8 degrees Celsius). Highs will warm into the mid 50s (12 degrees Celsius) on Tuesday, and then potentially be at or a little above 60 degrees (16 degrees Celsius) through the weekend!

Temperatures dive from highs in the 80s earlier today to lows in the 30s. UPDATE: Severe thunderstorm watch issued for all of Metro DetroitChilling OutWe got a fleeting reminder of summer to close out the work week. Highs for the weekend will barely get to 50 degrees, almost ten degrees below normal for late October. We should see a decent amount of sunshine on the dry days too. Partly cloudy skies will be the rule through the day with dry conditions expected through the night on the 31st.

Once the front passes by, temperatures will crash -- we’ll be in the upper 30s (4 degrees Celsius) by Saturday morning. Increasing clouds Saturday night, with lows in the mid 30s (1 to 2 degrees Celsius). Highs near 50 degrees (10 degrees Celsius). The first one, however will bring some showers to our area on Monday, with highs near 50 degrees (10 degrees Celsius). Highs, however, will remain only near 50 degrees (10 degrees Celsius), with lows in the 30s (1 to 3 degrees Celsius).

The one exception will be in the Thumb, where Lake Huron moisture will give you more cloud cover and some scattered showers. The third ingredient is cloud cover, and that’s the question mark. Enough high resolution models bring in some of this cloud cover – which acts as a blanket and holds some heat in - that I think many of us won’t see frost. Our Urban Heat Island has the lowest risk, as temps there will only drop into the upper 30s (4 degrees Celsius). Next weekMonday looks great, with mostly sunny skies and highs near 60 degrees (15 to 16 degrees Celsius).

We are waking up to temps in the low to mid 60s for most, with a few suburbs dipping into the 50s under mostly clear skies and dry conditions all around Metro Detroit.
