NWS Marquette Area of Responsibility

.DISCUSSION...Under a weak high pressure, expect dry weather until 
MIZ001-003-161200-
this evening and tonight, when chances of rain spread across the 
western half of the UP. Up to a tenth of an inch of rain is 
expected, but could vary significantly depending on the exact 
placement of isolated showers. Temperatures remaining slightly below 
normal will help keep RHs from falling much below the mid 50s 
percent except in the far east, where RHs could fall to around 40 
percent. Light and variable winds will shift to be out of the 
southeast this afternoon at 5 to 10 mph, though winds could remain 
variable in the vicinity of the Great Lakes lake breezes.

Monday, a few isolated showers in the morning and early afternoon 
could (20 percent) have thunder by the mid-afternoon hours ahead of 
a strong system of thunderstorms arriving in the evening to 
overnight hours. By sunset Monday, one to three tenths of an inch of 
rain is forecast. South to southwest winds of 5 to 10 mph gusting to 
15 mph are expected with RHs only falling to the 70s and 60s percent 
ranges.
