Detroit forecast: Spotty showers Friday and cold weekend ahead
Spotty showers Friday with cold temps
A few off-and-on rain showers could scatter around the area Friday, which could accumulate some slush in the northern counties like Lapeer and St. Clair.
The first snowflakes of the season could be upon us, as Friday brings scattered showers and cold temps.
Rain showers possible
Local perspective:
Some areas are waking up to rain Friday morning, along the eastern shores of the thumb. But rain doesn’t dominate the forecast Friday or in metro Detroit.
A few off-and-on rain showers could scatter around the area Friday, which could accumulate some slush in the northern counties like Lapeer and St. Clair.
Some other areas could see some scattered snowflakes, but we’re not all going to get the rain and wintry mix.
We will all, however, be getting the cold temps.
Cold weekend ahead
By the numbers:
Temps Friday will be in the low 40s. Overnight lows will be near and below freezing, and temps won’t bounce back a ton this weekend.
The weekend will be quiet and cold. Temps will top out in the mid 40s Saturday and Sunday and get cold overnight.
Warm-up next week
What's next:
As we move towards the middle of next week, temps are going to increase again into the 50s. Some evidence of even warmer air is coming, and it’s possible we’ll see temps hit 60 again later in the week.
