Good evening, Mid-Michigan!
On Friday, we see a sharp increase in temperature up into the low 50s, as well as windy conditions with gusts up to 30 mph possible during the afternoon hours. However, this warmup will be cut short, as a clipper system moves through the Great Lakes on Saturday, bringing colder temperatures into the low 30s for highs and a chance for some snow, although accumulations are only expected to be a trace at most. This cold persists throughout the rest of the weekend and into early next week.
After this, the next real chance for precipitation looks to be for Thursday with some rainfall instead of snow, as our temperatures gradually increase above freezing throughout the next 7 days.
Have a great rest of your week!
