After yesterday's big line of storms, we're heading into a cooler and drier weather pattern for the next few days.
Then the heat is expected to build back in for the weekend. And we'll be watching those storm forecasts once again.
See a little haze in your sky today? That's the Canadian wildfire smoke being drawn back into Michigan.
Here are the forecast highlights from the National Weather Service offices across Michigan:
Expect a cooler Wednesday with hazy skies from Canadian wildfire smoke, followed by a warming trend and potential thunderstorms this weekend.
The National Weather Service forecasts a mostly dry Wednesday with temperatures ranging from the upper 60s near Lake Superior to near 80 degrees in southern Michigan. Wildfire smoke will create hazy conditions across the state, particularly in the morning hours.
Winds will be light and northerly, with a moderate swim risk along some Lake Superior beaches due to wave conditions.
Thursday and Friday will remain dry with near-normal temperatures, but significant changes are expected over the weekend. A southerly flow will bring increasing humidity and heat, with temperatures potentially climbing into the 80s and low 90s. Thunderstorms are likely to develop Friday night into Saturday, with the highest probability in northern parts of the state.
The weekend storm system could bring heavy rainfall, with the Weather Prediction Center noting a marginal risk for excessive precipitation. Be prepared for potential thunderstorm activity and changing weather conditions.
Looking ahead, forecast models show some uncertainty for early next week. Temperatures are expected to trend toward normal to slightly below normal, with potential lingering shower chances. The extended forecast suggests a possible return to more stable weather patterns by mid-week.
