359 AM EST Sun Nov 1 2026

...Sprinkles Possible Today; Rain Chances Return Late Monday...

.DISCUSSION...
A few sprinkles or light showers around today, esp toward the
Mackinac Bridge. Otherwise, winds remain under 10mph (occasional
gust toward 20mph near Pellston late afternoon), generally from the
S but lake breezes possible this afternoon. Min RHs today drop into
the 40-50 percent range but could go lower in S flow downsloping
areas (e.g. Traverse City). Better chance for rain will arrive
Monday afternoon into Monday night, esp toward the Mackinac Bridge,
as S/SW winds increase toward 10-15mph with gusts around 20-25mph
possible. Rain chances likely hang on into the latter half of the
week. Mixing heights likely remain 1-3kft the next couple days, but
could be lower Tuesday with rain.
