Fire Weather Planning Forecast for northern Lower Michigan
National Weather Service Gaylord MI
334 PM EDT Sun Jun 23 2024

...Seasonable Temps with Heavy Rain Threat Monday Night/Tuesday...

.DISCUSSION...
A few showers through this evening could produce a few lightning strikes.
Otherwise...generally quiet weather is expected Monday as high pressure
moves through...with highs in the 70s to low 80s; warmest in the usual
west-flow downslope areas between Gladwin/Atlanta and the Lake Huron
coast. This is also where it should be driest, with min RHs Monday
afternoon in the 35-40 percent range. Winds should generally be light,
remaining 5-10mph, picking up Monday night into Tuesday from the south.
Heavy rain threat exists Monday night into early Tuesday...along with
some storms. Tuesday could be warmer, with highs potentially into the
80s, though if clouds/rain linger, it could stay cooler than expected...
but will likely be muggy either way.
