We’re wrapping up the work week with yet another push of unseasonably cool, dry air in place along with plentiful sunshine- another fall preview!  The summer conditions we’ve enjoyed this year are more typical of those our neighbors across MI and WI expect.  Humidity and warmth will build over the weekend and this will be coupled with a couple rounds of strong to potentially severe thunderstorms.  We’ll have to fine tune timing as we move forward, but right now we’re focused on Saturday morning and again Saturday night into Sunday morning.  The Storm Prediction Center outlines our region for a Slight Risk of severe weather Saturday- highlighted by a damaging wind threat.  Weekend rainfall potential sits in the half inch to one inch range, but we also want to be sure to point out there will be locally heavier totals where the stronger storms track.  Once to next week, reinforcing cool, fall-ish, air will blow into town amidst gusty northerly winds.
