Warmer temps start to arrive

The first day of spring is Friday, as spring-like weather shows up in Metro Detroit. 

I wouldn’t call it warm, but it’s better than it’s been, and we’ll keep climbing this afternoon as temps float toward 50. 

There’s an outside chance for a few light showers this morning, and with temps near freezing, any rain could create a brief slick spot or two. Any potential impacts should be short-lived though, as temps rise quickly. 

Most of the day winds up dry. 

Spring officially arrives Friday at 10:46 a.m., and Mother Nature plays along with temps in the 50s and 60s through the weekend. 

Scattered rain Friday gives way to a dry Saturday, with another chance for showers Sunday and a cooldown to follow.
