DETROIT – Storms and showers are moving through Southeast Michigan early Wednesday afternoon.
Wednesday storm forecast
Storm chances increased midday, with isolated strong to severe wind gusts possible and the potential for heavy rainfall through this evening.
All of Southeast Michigan is under a marginal (level 1 our of 5) risk for severe storms today with highs in the upper 80s.
We could see some additional storms late Wednesday night north of I-69.
Air quality
We started the day with unhealthy air quality as the wildfire smoke looms, but there are no active alerts, as the smoke is expected to retreat north as the day progresses.
Cold front Thursday
A cold front works through Thursday producing some additional morning showers and likely non-severe storms. Highs remain in the 80s, but a cooler and less humid air mass builds in through Friday as we dip slightly below average with highs comfortably around 80.
Weekend weather forecast
As far as your weekend forecast, additional storms will be possible Saturday into Sunday, but it’s certainly not a weekend washout.
Temperatures will be in the seasonal low 80s both days.
