Those in Detroit can look forward to a sunny disposition from the skies above with the National Weather Service releasing a recent forecast that promises summer temperatures steadily in the mid-80s for the coming week. With today's thermometer hitting a comfortable high of around 83 degrees, it's a nudge for locals to soak in the calm winds which are expected to shift to the west at about 6 mph in the afternoon. One can find respite from the week's labors under the radiance of a benevolent sun.
Tonight's skies, partly masked with clouds, hold a low near 66 degrees, making for a placid setting for those venturing into the evening. As reported by the National Weather Service, a southwest wind is set to meander through at a gentle pace of 3 to 5 mph. Sunday continues this pattern of warmth, climbing to around 85 degrees, with only the faintest breath of northern northwest winds slowing down to a calm hush by the morning.
The advent of the new week heralds a slight twist, as partly sunny skies on Monday give way to an eastern breeze in the afternoon. Even as the day promises a high of about 85 degrees, the night responds with its own overture of clouds, yet keeps the mercury affixed at a low near 66 degrees. These patterns are mirrored through to Tuesday which, while mostly sunny, teases the possibility of thunderstorms post 2 p.m., with a 30 percent chance of precipitation, according to the NWS forecast.
Midweek, the potential for showers rises, as Wednesday brings with it more definitive odds for storms, notably after 2 p.m. Even though the day is largely marked by partly sunny climes and a high flirting with 85 degrees, evening forecasts hint at more showers and probable thunderstorms before ceding to a streak of varied conditions into Thursday. True to the cyclical nature of the week, showers and thunderstorms are potential guests once again on Thursday, with mostly sunny skies beneath a high near 83 degrees.
As the week wraps up, Friday continues the trend with mostly sunny skies and a high around 84 degrees. This follows a week marked by summer's warmth and changing weather.
