Areas across Metro Detroit are waking up to storm damage from the severe weather that rolled through overnight. We are not out of the woods, quite yet.
First and foremost, we have an ongoing flood risk with rounds of heavy rainfall in the forecast through Thursday.
A Flood Watch remains in effect through Thursday night as multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms cross a stalled frontal boundary.
More Severe Storm Chances
A slight (level 2) risk for severe thunderstorms exists this afternoon and evening along and south of M-59. Whereas, north of that corridor, into the Thumb, is under a marginal (level 1) risk.
The primary hazard remains damaging wind gusts. Between the wind and flooding threats, we have extended the 4Warn Weather Alert through the day today.
Weather Whiplash
We dry out on Friday as highs stay around 70 before a strong cold front brings rain and possible thunderstorms on Saturday. There will be a chance for severe storms. We have a sharp drop in temperatures on Sunday with temperatures plunging into the 40s.
