Weather Story

Chance for Aurora viewing tonight

Above-Normal Temperatures Ahead

Moderate Swim Risk Saturday: Schoolcraft County

High pressure will persist through much of the weekend; enabling unseasonably warm and dry conditions over the region. Under mostly clear skies there is a chance for Aurora viewing tonight. Expect afternoon highs over the weekend for most locations to top out well into the 80s with even a few lower 90s possible over the west half of Upper Michigan.

A persistent summery weather pattern is expected into the early part of August with above normal temperatures likely. The best possibility of scattered showers and thunderstorms will be on Monday, otherwise mainly dry weather likely will accompany the elevated temperatures next week.
