Much Warmer Weather Ahead

Northern Michigan Beach Forecast

Extreme Heat Risk Expected This Week

Most noteworthy story for the week is the increasing hot and humid conditions. Combination of high temperatures exceeding 90 degrees, overnight lows likely only in the 70s, and very high humidity will likely pose the risk of significant heat related impacts…especially so Tuesday through Thursday (and perhaps into Friday as well). At least a few chances for passing showers and thunderstorms are expected through the week, but much of the time is expected to remain dry.

Sunny skies and quiet weather will continue today across Northern Michigan with highs in the 70s to near 80 near the beaches. Even with warm temperatures near the beaches, chilly water temperatures could lead to hyperthermia-related injuries. For more info, visit weather.gov/greatlakes/beachhazards

Trends continue to point towards a period of warmer than normal weather across northern lower and eastern upper Michigan this week. At the minimum, warm and muggy nights are anticipated, with shower and thunder chances dictating exactly how warm things get during the daytime hours.
