Sneak Peak 4th of July

Wow, a comfortable last couple nights, in fact almost "cold" Tuesday Night into Wednesday morning as temps took a nose dive into the 40s across most locations. I hope everyones AC and fans enjoyed this nice break because I am a afraid that they're going to be put back to work starting Saturday.

Friday the area of high pressure that was over the great lakes and giving us excellent sleeping nights will start to shift stage right out of the area and open the door for a southwest and eventually moist flow. Temperatures will be a few dergees warmer than Thursday. But I think the region really starts to notice a difference starting Saturday. And by Independence Day the heat and humidy will really be turned up! I'll leave some state maps of temperatures up at the bottom.

Next Chance of rain for the southern part of the state doesn't come in until at least Monday. If you're going to Northern Michigan, Rain chances start to increase Sunday in the Upper Pensuala and for the rest of the region on Monday.

Highs for lower MI including the DET, GR, Tri Cites, and Lansing will be in the mid to upper 80s Saturday. Lower 90s Sunday through Tuesday. Lows won't be in the 70s... It will be warm in Northern MI on Saturday with highs in the mid to upper 80s on Saturday and Sunday. UP will see highs in the 80s on Saturday, upper 70s and low 80s Sunday with a chance of storms.
