Good Morning!
Cold Air is firmly locked in over Michigan right now, with a Freeze Watch up for the entire area through Saturday. It'll be a chilly night for high school football, and a brisk day for The War tomorrow as Michigan State and Michigan clash on the college football gridiron, Let's get you set up...
FREEZE WATCH IN EFFECT: Make sure you take plants and furry friends inside, Freeze watch up for the entire area through tomorrow, with forecast lows dropping to 28 degrees.
CHILLY WEEKEND PATTERN: Very little change in the thinking for the weekend here in Michigan. Average temperatures this time of year in the area are right around 57 degrees, and below normal is the idea. Daytime highs today will struggle to hold the mid 50's. Tonight, we'll fall thru freezing late, and tomorrow, we don't even see 50 in the area.
DID YOU SAY SNOW?: Yes I did, and I'm not changing that idea any either. I don't expect anything crazy or accumulation mind you, but don't be shocked to see some flakes fly tomorrow with readings in the 40's. Now if you're in northern Michigan or across the bridge in the Upper Peninsula, from west of a Marquette/Escanaba line, you can expect some heavier snows and that might actually stick a little bit. That same snow will track southeast and be across Traverse City, Gaylord, and Cadillac as we get into the overnight on Saturday.
CLEARING, SEASONABLE DAYS AND CHILLY NIGHTS: We'll get the upper impulse out of here that brings us the raindrops and flaked today and tomorrow, and from there, it's just around average for this time of the year, The colder air gets shoved back north of the birder and we climb back into above average readings, starting the new work week with 60's then marching higher from there.
LOOKING AHEAD: Not much to see through the end of the forecast after we get through this cold snap. Tuesday, a little wave rolls through that introduces some clouds into the mix, and I suppose we could see a lonely shower in a spot or two, no big deal. The better chances for raindrops right now would be out of South Central Michigan, north of I-96. Wednesday and Thursday, we see clouds in and out, and maybe the mention of a shower possible on Thursday afternoon, then we set up for a dry and seasonably pleasant weekend.
Forecast for you:
Today - Cloudy and cool, maybe a stray raindrop or two before 3 PM, high 51.
Tonight - Blanket and hot cocoa needed for Friday night football at your local high school, otherwise clearing, chilly, lows all the way back to 28.
Saturday - Clearing and chilly, daytime highs don't make it beyond 46.
Sunday - Sunny and seasonably cool, high 54.
Monday - Sunny to start, increasing clouds as the day progresses, warmer, high 60.
Tuesday - Mixed sunshine, some areas could see an isolated pop-up shower, much warmer. High 70.
Wednesday - Partly sunny, pleasant. High 67.
Thursday - Partly cloudy skies, just the mention of a quick hitting shower in a spot or two, cooler. High 62.
Friday - Mainly sunny and seasonable, high 60.
There's your forecast, I hope that you have a great day! Blessings.

Cold Snap Coming!!!
Good Morning!
Clear skies in the area right now, which means seasonably cool conditions. We'll get colder and introduce some rain and dare I say it...snow flurries :-( into the forecast. Let's break it all down for you and have a look.
COOLER THAN NORMAL: Average temperatures in the area are right around 59 degrees, good luck seeing that for Friday night high school football or the college games on Saturday. We'll be lucky to get above 50 for the weekend! Add in the mention of some showers to boot, and you get the picture, not a very pretty fall one.
SOME RAIN (MAYBE FLURRIES TOO): Clouds will be on the increase over the next 24-48 hours as a cold front sags into Michigan and brings some polar air along with it. I don't expect any widespread rain, just know that a few hit and run showers will be possible across Lower Michigan, primarily south of I-96 today and into this evening. Lower chances of showers tomorrow across the area, but in exchange, that cold front will take about 10 degrees of warmth thank you very much. Looking north to the Upper Peninsula, we note that by morning drive tomorrow, some snowflakes will be flying in the western part of the state! I don't expect that here, we'll still be fairly warm.
MODERATING TEMPERATURES NEXT WEEK: Once we get through the weekend and get some of this upper troughing out of here and turn the winds a bit more westerly, we'll get back closer to seasonal readings in the upper 50's. In fact, we'll warm up some, pushing into the 60's and flirting with a 70 for Tuesday. Temperatures settle into the "at or slightly above normal" range for next week.
Here's the forecast for Jackson and surrounding areas including Parma and Leslie:
Today - Mainly sunny to start, developing clouds later. High 66.
Tonight - Cloudy, chilly, a shower or two can't be ruled out, lows near 37.
Friday - Cloudy, high only 50.
Saturday - Sunny and cold. High 48.
Sunday - Clearing skies, still chilly. High 50.
Monday - Continued clear and warmer. High 60.
Tuesday - Mainly sunny, some passing clouds, perhaps a stray shower or two. High 67.
Wednesday - Partly cloudy, high 63.
There's your forecast, I hope that you have a great day!
