Elevated Fire Danger Today

Weekend Outlook

Gusty southwest winds and low afternoon humidity will result in elevated fire danger conditions this afternoon. Similar conditions are likely on Saturday as well. For information about burning in your particular county, please visit: www.dnr.state.mi.us/burnpermits/

Big story remains the increasingly warm temperatures, with highs by Saturday up into the 80s across at least portions of northern lower Michigan. After a bit of a cool down Sunday, temperatures will increase further on Monday…when some areas may make a run at 90 degrees across northern lower Michigan. While much of the time and area will remain dry through the weekend, can’t completely rule out a few showers at times. Better chances for more numerous showers and thunderstorms return later Monday.
