Storms possible on Thursday with warm temperatures remaining in Southeast Michigan

lightning bolt from dark sky

Temperatures remain warmer on Thursday, bringing another chance at strong to severe storms later in the day. It’s important to note that this risk is much lower than last week, but with some heavy rain and gusty winds, chances are all the same. A marginal risk (1 out of 5) from the Storm Prediction Center covers Southeast Michigan for the latter part of the day. Storms will begin to pop in the afternoon and into the evening hours. While rain will scatter through the area, actual stronger storms should be more isolated. Heavy downpours and gusty winds are the main concern for any cells that strengthen. The most likely area for storms at the moment appears to be mainly south of Interstate 69. Keep a close eye on the radar through the afternoon and early evening hours before our rain chances end.

Strong to severe storms possible as North Texas stays hot, humid

It’s warm and muggy Tuesday morning, with most waking up to dry conditions. A few areas in Northeast Texas near Paris and Sulphur Springs have seen storms, with very isolated showers across other areas. A First Alert Weather Day has been issued for Tuesday afternoon due to the threat of strong-to-severe storms. There is a low-end level 1/5 risk for severe storms with heavy rain, damaging winds and some hail as the main threats. The timing of these storms will be between 3 and 9 p.m. The chance of rain is only 30%, so not everyone will see showers or storms.

Everyone will see the heat and humidity, with temperatures near the 100° mark and feel-like temperatures as high as 102°. There’s another chance of a few afternoon pop-up storms on Wednesday, although there is no severe weather risk issued. While there is no risk, these storms can still produce strong winds and heavy rain. By Thursday, DFW dries out and heats up, with the dry weather continuing into the first half of the weekend.  Better chances for isolated storms return Sunday and Monday.
