DETROITGood Sunday afternoon!

A wind advisory is in effect for Detroit and all of Southeast Michigan until 4 p.m. Sunday. The original high wind warning has been cancelled.

Sunday morning saw hazardous winds before and after sunrise. A high wind warning has been downgraded to a wind advisory, as gusts are only expected to reach 40-50 mph. Steady winds are blowing between 20-30 mph.

Still, use caution on the roads, especially those driving high profile vehicles.

It will remain windy midday Sunday and during the afternoon. It becomes sunnier as colder air arrives and temperatures fall. The mercury descends from the 50s into the low 40s by the day’s end.

Rain/snow mix Monday

A separate low pressure system will arrive Monday.

The low pressure center will travel just of the south of the Motor City, and close to the Michigan-Ohio border. Snow and rain will fall across the region from the early morning Monday through the early afternoon, at the earliest. There’s a better chance for rain/snow mix south of I-94 for Lenawee in Monroe counties.

For Detroit and Wayne and Washtenaw counties, there will be less rain in the mix. Snowier conditions are also more likely north of 8 Mile Road for Livingston, Oakland and Macomb counties.

Accumulating snow is possible. Early computer model runs indicate that up to an inch of snow is possible from Detroit to Ann Arbor, and southward toward the Ohio border. From Detroit to Ann Arbor and north of 8 Mile Road, an inch to 3 inches is possible.
