Flood Watch issued as strong storms, heavy rain threaten SE Michigan through Thursday

Wednesday, Thursday highs in lower 70s

4Warn Weather – If you keep photo albums and precious items in your basement, you might want to bring them upstairs as heavy rain is possible over the next couple of days.

A Flood Watch goes into effect at 8 p.m. and lasts through Thursday, April 16 evening.

Tuesday

Now let’s talk about storms for Tuesday night.

The Storm Prediction Center upped our risk of storms tonight to a level 3 Enhanced Risk.

We are usually under at Level 1 Marginal or Level 2 Slight risk, so this is higher than what we have seen lately.

All severe weather threats are in play, including high winds, hail, flooding, and an isolated tornado risk.

Timing looks to be after 9 p.m. until about 3 a.m. for the most severe storms, but heavy rain could continue through the morning commute.

Midweek rain

Multiple chances for rain on both Wednesday and Thursday increase the risk of flooding.
