Besides some lingering light smoke, looking at a pleasant and a mild end to the weekend. Strong system set to arrive later Monday into Tuesday, bringing fairly good chances for showers and thunderstorms along with it. Some of these storms could produce gusty winds and brief periods of heavy rain, especially Monday night. Dry and cool weather returns heading into the middle of the week.

Today will be a good day to visit northern Michigan beaches…with plenty of sunshine, mild temperatures, and low swim risk conditions. Gusty southwest winds return Monday, likely resulting in dangerous swimming conditions…especially on the beaches of northern Lake Michigan.
