Milder Monday

Starting off milder this morning with afternoon highs exceeding seasonal values, in the 70s. Rain and cooler temperatures on the way. Meteorologist Lori Pinson has your forecast.

A sweet start to the week will end with storms and give way to a much different feel moving forward.

Monday is the warm one, with highs near 70 and a decent amount of sunshine early. Storms become a decent bet this evening, however, especially between 6 p.m. and midnight. 

Here’s future radar.

Most of Southeast Michigan is under a marginal risk for severe weather, which is level 1 out of a 5. 

The better chance for a stronger storm will be south of I-69, with a slight level 2 out of 5 closer to the Michigan/Ohio state line. 

For most of us, this is a regular thunderstorm setup. 

That said, a few storms could turn strong to isolated—severe, with damaging winds and hail as the main concerns. The tornado threat is very low.
