Get Ready for a Frost Advisory
With temperatures dipping dangerously close to the freezing mark, a Frost Advisory is kicking in after midnight Saturday. This advisory will be in effect from 2 a.m. to 8 a.m. Sunday for several counties, including Genesee, Lapeer, St. Clair, Livingston, Oakland, Macomb, Washtenaw, and Lenawee. If you’ve got sensitive plants outside, it’s time to cover them up! Grab a blanket or a sheet to keep your greens protected from any frost that might sneak in late Saturday night and into Sunday morning.
Saturday Night Chill
As we embrace Saturday evening, temperatures are predicted to drop to the lower- to mid-30s in the counties under the advisory. If you happen to be in Wayne or Monroe counties, don’t fret! Your lows will be a bit milder, hanging out in the upper-30s to 40 degrees. The winds will be light, coming from the north and north-northwest, helping to keep that chilly air around.
A Beautiful Sunday Ahead
After that frosty start, Sunday is shaping up to be lovely! As the morning chill lifts, expect temperatures to gradually climb into the mid-60s by afternoon. So, if you’re planning brunch or a stroll in the park, it looks like you’ll have some really nice weather to enjoy! The day promises to be sunny with light and variable winds, making it perfect for outdoor activities.
As the sun sets on Sunday, the night will bring mostly clear to partly cloudy skies and temperatures dipping down again to the lower- to mid-40s. Keep that blanket nearby; you might need it again in the evening.
What’s Coming Next Week?
Looking ahead, Monday is expected to get even warmer. With mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies, temperatures should rise into the lower-70s, while evening lows will likely hover in the lower- to mid-60s. How nice is that?
But hold on to your hats—Tuesday has a little surprise in store! Expect a warm, windy day with rain developing in the afternoon. There’s also a chance of thunderstorms. Highs will climb to the lower- to mid-80s, so think about keeping your umbrella handy just in case those clouds decide to open up! Evening lows are predicted to drop back down to the mid-40s.
Hump day on Wednesday and the following day, Thursday, will cool down again, with temperatures settling in the lower- to mid-60s. Wednesday will be partly cloudy, while Thursday may see some rain showers as well, with clouds setting the tone for the day.
