Sharply Colder, Flurries Possible...

Good Morning!

I am glad the severe weather threat fizzled yesterday.  Just a little bit of sideways rain in Jackson then quiet.  Now we are just in the rain, which is causing some flooding issues throughout the area.  Have a look at the list of alerts:

FLOOD WARNING:  As late as April 25th, 2 AM

  • Jackson
  • Clinton
  • Shiawassee
  • Ingham
  • Branch
WIND ADVISORY:  Until 8 PM EDT Tonight
  • Branch
  • Hillsdale
  • Lenawee
  • Calhoun
  • Jackson
  • Washtenaw
  • Eaton
  • Ingham
  • Livingston
  • Clinton
  • Shiawassee
SUMMARY:  A surface tracks thru the Upper Peninsula and drags a cold front along with it, keeping skies cloudy today and into tonight, and opening the door for a shot of polar air coming in from Canada as a trough digs it's way through the Midwest, keeping temperatures in the 40's with perhaps a 50 or two.  We don't start to warm up again until late Sunday or early Monday.  Clear and chilly will be the rule for the weekend, definitely have a jacket!

Forecast:  Today, cloudy, some lingering showers persist throughout the day and into the evening, high 45, wind turning WNW increasing to 25-35 MPH.

Tonight:  Cloudy, maybe a stray shower, don't be surprised to see a snowflake, low 28.  Wind NW 10-20 MPH.

Saturday, clearing skies, chilly, high 45, wind NW 7-14 MPH.

More detailed forecast forthcoming this afternoon.  I hope you have a great day!
