A State of Emergency was issued in Beverly Hills as crews and residents work to clean up after this week's damaging thunderstorms.

The stretch of heat and thunderstorms continues heading into the weekend.

"I started screaming into the phone to my mom ‘My roof is collapsed. my roof has collapsed,’" said Marcie Swan.

Friday: Very warm and humid with more spotty afternoon and evening storms with a high near 90.

Thursday's rush hour is taking place just as the teeth of a strong weather system moves through Southeastern Michigan this afternoon.

Thunderstorms on Wednesday night caused widespread damage in Metro Detroit, especially in lower Oakland County, where trees and power lines were brought down.

Temperatures take a slight step back today, but it will still be hot.

The first day of summer has arrived.

In addition to heavy downpours, winds reaching up to 60-70 mph and penny-sized hail are possible, according to the National weather service.

Living in a city can raise temperatures by 8 degrees. But adding trees can lower it by more than 10 degrees. Detroit has planted tens of thousands to compound the benefits.
