DETROIT – Here is the Metro Detroit weather forecast update for Jan. 14, 2022, afternoon and evening.
Cold this weekend

A cold weekend is on tap, and with breezy conditions. You’ll feel it.
Temperatures overnight will be in single digits for most of us (near 10 degrees in the Metro Zone), with wind chills below zero.
Wind chills only make it into the single digits Saturday, but some relief from the cold returns early next week.
Snow chances Monday
We have a bit more confidence in what transpires Monday, but there are still some questions that are highly dependent on the system that impacts the South this weekend (more on that below).
At this point, it looks like the major snow will miss us just to our east, but if that system takes a slightly different track, some east-siders could see more snow Monday.
Outside of the big storm system, a few snowflakes will try to swing through from the west Monday, but probably won’t amount to much.
Snow chances Wednesday
Long-range models are still bringing that low overhead late Tuesday and Wednesday, and with it comes breezy conditions and a few snow showers.
It still looks like low-impact type stuff, though.
Southern snow storm
Confidence continues to grow that this will be an impactful storm for the South, with a combination of snow and freezing rain.
There’s still a little uncertainty about where the freezing rain/snow sets up, but the consensus is that travel will be a concern this weekend, especially since Atlanta is such a big travel hub and will likely take a good hit from this storm.
