A Mixed Bag Today - Clearing & Cooler Later!

Good Afternoon!

LOOKING AT THE RADAR:  As I write this, we see a Severe Thunderstorm Warning just east of the blog, encompassing an area boxed by Waterford, Algonac, Port Huron, over to just southeast of Goodrich. Once we get that out of here, we'll be in decent shape for awhile, with just a few scattered showers and storms popping up back into south central Michigan.

MILDER UPPER AIR SETUP:  Once we get through this, it appears that things will be drying out and staying a touch on the cool side!  Forecast modeling is not showing anything warmer than 80 degrees in Jackson until next week, under cool northwesterly flow out of Canada with drier air.  The next somewhat decent chance at showers and storms looks to be Saturday/Sunday, with a low presuure center tracking through the Upper Peninsula dragging a surface boundary along with it.  Here's the forecast:

This afternoon - mixed sunshine, a few scattered showers and perhaps a thunderstorm or two, these will increase in coverage some through the next few hours, high 84.  Wind SW 7-14 MPH.

Tonight - continued partly cloudy, a few stray showers or a storm early, then clearing and comfortable, lows all the way down to 51 with winds turning NW 5-10 MPH.

Wednesday - Sunny skies, unseasonably cool, high 75.  Winds NNW 4-8 MPH.

Wednesday night - mainly starry skies, continued cool - lows roll back to 50, wind N turning E 3-7 MPH.

Thursday - Mainly sunny with some passing clouds, a bit warmer, high 79.  Wind ESE 3-6 MPH.

Friday - A mix of clouds and sunshine, possibly a PM shower, high 80.

Saturday, some clouds, still the chance of a few afternoon showers, high 82.

There's a look at your forecast for the next few days, I hope you have a great Tuesday!  Blessings!
