- Rain Mid-Week then Cooler
Tropical moisture will graze southeast Lower Michigan tonight
with low chance POPs there, then fair and warm weather expected
into Monday before a shortwave trough rides over the top of upper
ridging across the SE CONUS with a low pressure center tracking
across the central Great Lakes on Tuesday. This is followed by a
full latitude upper trough developing across the eastern CONUS by
next weekend and the potential for a stronger low on Wed-Thu
although ensemble spread remains considerable on the details.
At this point it seems possible rain will be around for Wednesday
and Thursday with sharply cooler weather for Friday and beyond.
