Wildfire smoke will return to Metro Detroit on Sunday, with more storm chances
4Warn Weather – We have had a lot of rain, and some areas will see more. The chance for rain showers, including a few thunderstorms, will continue into early Monday.
A chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue into late Saturday night. Downpours and gusty winds are possible from the strongest storms, but the chance is low.
Rain earlier in the day helped to suppress the development of thunderstorms in the area, the atmosphere will still be able to support some showers and storms.
Saturday evening temperatures will be in the 70s. During the overnight hours, temperatures will fall to the mid 60s. Rain showers will be possible into the early morning hours.
Showers and thunderstorms could develop again into Sunday afternoon as temperatures push into the mid 80s. Besides the rain, air quality will be an issue. Wildfire smoke from western and central Canada will intensify over Southeast Michigan during the afternoon.
An Air Quality Alert will be in effect for all of Southeast Michigan on Sunday.
The air is likely to be “unhealthy for sensitive groups.” At times, the air could become “unhealthy” for most people.
People who are sensitive to compromised air quality–particularly children, seniors and people with respiratory conditions–should consider limiting time outdoors.
