Weekend rain & storm chances

A really comfortable end to the workweek. We’ll start the morning in the 50s and 60s before temperatures climb quickly under mostly sunny skies. Look for mid 60s around 8 AM, low 70s by 10 AM and upper 70s by lunchtime. Afternoon highs top out near 80°, with a few more clouds possible later in the day.

Saturday is the day to watch. A few morning showers will be possible with more showers and thunderstorms returning during the day. Rain will likely become more widespread across parts of Southeast Michigan. Highs will still reach the lower 80s. Sunday looks quieter behind that system, with partly cloudy skies and highs around 79°.

The comfortable late-August pattern continues into early next week. Monday looks mostly sunny with a high near 78°, followed by around 80° Tuesday. Another opportunity for showers or thunderstorms may arrive by Wednesday as temperatures climb back into the lower 80s.

Tonight: Clearing skies with lows in the low 60s. Winds: Light

Friday: Partly to mostly sunny with highs in the low 80. It will be 82° in Detroit. Winds: SSE 5-10 mph.

Saturday: Showers and storms likely, a few could be strong/severe with damaging wind gusts and torrential downpours. Temps will reach the upper 70s to near 80.
