Elevated Fire Danger Today

Memorial Day Weekend Outlook

Northern Michigan Beach Forecast

Elevated fire danger is expected across much of northern lower Michigan today as dry vegetation and low relative humidity combine with gusty east winds. Please check the Michigan DNR website for burn restrictions.

Milder tonight with increasing clouds. Looking ahead, easterly winds will lead to a contrast across much of the region again Saturday… warmer with more peeks of sun in NW lower and cloudier elsewhere, with shower chances highest across northeast lower. We trend drier with time, and eventually kickstart summer-like warmth on the Memorial Day holiday, a trend set to carry through next week!

Breezy east winds today and Saturday will result in a moderate to high swim risk, primarily at Lake Huron beaches. Warmth builds Sunday and Monday across the region with the best beach weather of the Memorial Day weekend coming on Monday.
