.AVIATION...

Last pockets of light showers are vacating the area early this
morning setting the stage for a VFR, mostly sunny day for the bulk
of the terminals. A lingering frontal boundary over northern lower
MI keeps lower VFR cloud cover near MBS with guidance suggesting it
gradually expands back of the airport by afternoon. Respectable
remnant gradient over southern lower MI today leads to a breezier
day with southwest gusts able to reach peak gusts of 25-30kts during
the daylight hours. Aforementioned frontal boundary sags south
through the area overnight as a shortwave tracks across the northern
Ohio Valley. This offers another round of scattered showers with
isolated thunder chances mainly south of I-69.

D21/DTW Convection... Passing wave to the south as a weak cold front
sags through tonight offers a low chance for isolated thunder
however probability at the airport is too low to currently mention
in TAF.

.DTW THRESHOLD PROBABILITIES...

* Low for thunderstorms tonight.
