4Warn Weather – We’ve got more chances for showers and thunderstorms in the forecast looking ahead into the end of the weekend.

The Storm Prediction Center has placed most of Southeastern Michigan in a Marginal Risk (1 out of 5) for severe weather on Sunday with Lenawee and Monroe Counties under a Slight Risk (2 out of 5) for severe weather. This risk for severe weather continues further south into the Ohio Valley where an Enhanced Risk (3 out of 5) for severe weather is in place from Missouri into Ohio and Kentucky.

Damaging winds in excess of 60 miles an hour and large hail will be the primary threat, although heavy rainfall will also be possible with some thunderstorms, as well as an isolated tornado could be possible as well. High temperatures heading for the upper 70s to near 80 degrees by Sunday afternoon.

We keep the chance of rain showers and clouds into the forecast. Looking ahead Memorial Day on Monday. High temperatures remaining into the low mid 70s by Monday afternoon.

Then we start to break up the cloud cover, bring a little sunshine into the forecast, but we also keep the chance of rain showers and a few thunderstorms into the forecast as well for Tuesday. High temperatures remaining in the low 70s by Tuesday afternoon.

We will keep the chance of rain showers into the forecast looking ahead to Wednesday, before high-pressure moves into the region and dries us out. Lots of sunshine is expected Thursday and into the end of next week on Friday. High temperatures cooler, in the 60s looking ahead into Wednesday before we warm back into the 70s for the end of next week.

The dry weather sticks around into the start of next weekend on Saturday, partly cloudy skies can be expected. High temperatures heading for the lower 80s before our next chance of rain moves into the region late on Saturday night.
