I recently had the privilege of working on what I consider to be one of the coolest stories I’ve done in my entire 40-year career here at Local 4.

A line of showers and thunderstorms will cross the Thumb region through early evening, but the rest of us won’t get a drop.

The next batch of rain is on the move, and most of it will fall during the overnight hours.

That string of lights was some of Elon Musk’s Starlink satellites, which are low-orbit satellites as part of his commercial enterprise to sell internet access.

There’s a lot of interest in these maps, and also a lot of questions. I promised that I’d write an article sometime to explain these, and here it is!

Tuesday (March 15) was a minor setback, as cooler temperatures moved in behind Monday night’s cold front. But don’t worry, there’s plenty to smile about in this forecast.

It was really a wonderful day in Detroit as the last of the ice broke away in the Detroit River with the sunshine and a gentle breeze with temperatures in the mid to upper 50s; people are ready for spring.

Before getting to the forecast, I want to first mention something about yesterday’s forecast for today.

The weather pattern through Saturday will be one of scattered, very light showers of either rain or snow. But what comes in on Sunday won’t be scattered, and may not be light.

We’ll start our Finally Friday with mostly sunny skies, and temperatures will race up into the low 50s (11 degrees Celsius) by early afternoon, then level off and even fall as clouds move in.

After a few showers this morning that I certainly didn’t expect, it was back to full sunshine and very pleasant temperatures, as many of us once again got close to or above 70 degrees (21 degrees Celsius). However, as I’ve been telling you all week, don’t get used to it. The party’s over.

There are few things more certain in Michigan than the changing of leaves.

Thursday night will be another quiet night, with nothing more than some high, thin clouds passing by from time to time.

Our stretch of gorgeous weather continues as high pressure remains parked right over the Great Lakes region. That means another mostly clear night, with lows near 50 degrees (10 degrees Celsius) in our urban heat island closer to Detroit, while rural areas drop once again into the 40s (6 to 9 degrees Celsius), with calm air.

As promised, we are well on our way to a spectacular final week of September weather.

Tuesday’s cold front did a number on some of us with large hail and damaging wind gusts scattered across the area. However, now that the front is well south and east of us, we are the beneficiaries of the cooler, drier air streaming in.

A Severe Thunderstorm Watch has been issued for all of southeast Michigan until 11:00 p.m.

An approaching cold front will generate a line of thunderstorms over the central part of the state in the mid-to-late afternoon, and this line will cross southeast Michigan between then and midnight.

Tuesday’s cold front has ushered in a cooler, drier air mass, with the day’s mid 80s (30 degrees Celsius) now replaced by Wednesday’s mid- to upper 70s (24 to 26 degrees Celsius). While an isolated brief, light shower is possible before sunset -- best chance is north of M-59 -- most of us should be dry through the evening hours.

A severe storm threat is in the forecast Tuesday.

It has been a gradual process, but our temperatures have crept upward this week, and so have our dew point temperatures.
