We start the day with mixed clouds and sunshine and get a bit warmer, then go back into the freezer for tonight. There are Freeze Watches up for Branch and Hillsdale County through tomorrow. Nighttime lows will flirt with 30 degrees or lower throughout the area. Let's get right to it.
TEMPERATURES: We'll keep seeing temperatures in the 50's though it will warm a couple of degrees each day, with chilly nights. Computer models are predicting sub-freezing temperatures for the next two nights. Wednesday we'll get a break from this chilly air as a ridge pushes in here from the southwest, briefly moderating temperatures and warming us back to the mid 60's, before the daytime 50's then freezing nights pattern resumes until the weekend. Here's current temperatures around the US:
RAIN: It looks like Wednesday night into Thursday will be our next good chance at some showers or storms, and that lines up with the expected arrival of the warmer air as ridging building in from southwest of us arrives. It's looking pretty dry here in South Central Michigan, and the 5-day precipitation forecast from the National Weather Service backs that up. Here's the map. At most, a half-inch of rain in Michigan for the next 5 days.
Take a look out east though, man oh man, what a storm is shaping up out there!
SEVERE WEATHER: Nothing here for the next 3 days. In fact, there's no severe weather forecast anywhere, except for the Outer Banks of North Carolina as the storm system tracks up the east coast and cranks up into a full-blown Nor'Easter. I will forgo the severe weather maps right now since the severe threat to Michigan is so far removed, and minimal across the nation in general. We'll update it if we need to as the day progresses. Most of Indiana and Eastern Ohio is under a Freeze Watch through tomorrow morning at 8AM.
It's time for the local forecast for Jackson County:
Today, a mix of clouds and sunshine, breezy and cool, high temperatures near 53, NE winds 10-20 MPH.
Tonight, clear and cold, don't be surprised to see weather advisories for the freezing weather, lows down to 29, N winds 7-15 MPH.
Back to work on Monday with clear skies, a touch warmer, high temperature 56, winds N 7-15 MPH.
Monday night, clear and cold, nighttime lows down to 30, winds N 7-15 MPH.
Tuesday, mainly sunny, a few passing clouds, highs near 57.
Wednesday, sunny skies, clouds later on with a chance of showers or a thunderstorm, high near 63.
Thursday, cloudy skies to start with chance of lingering rain showers, then clearing, cooler, high near 52.
Friday, clear and cool, high of 53.
That's a look at your weather for this Sunday, I do hope you have a great day! Blessings.
