Detroit wakes up to a summer sweet spot today, with clear, mild skies and temperatures near 62°F to start the day. Sunshine will stick around through the afternoon, with a comfortable high near 85°F before the real heat and humidity muscle in later in the weekend.
What To Expect Today
Mostly sunny skies and a light west breeze around 1–7 mph should make this day feel downright pleasant, with only a very small chance of any rain. Temperatures slip into the mid-to-upper 60s overnight, so evening cookouts, patio hangs, and strolls should stay comfortably warm without feeling sticky.
Sunday Into Monday: Heat And Storms
Tomorrow and next Monday are a different story. Heat and humidity are set to build, with highs climbing into the upper 80s to around 90°F. Dewpoints in the 70s will crank heat indices into the low-to-mid 90s, so it will feel hotter than the thermometer suggests.
Showers and thunderstorms are possible tomorrow, and a few storms could be on the stronger side. A more organized severe-weather threat is expected next Monday, with the main concern being damaging wind, according to the National Weather Service.
Plan Ahead
If you or someone you know does not have air conditioning, the city operates cooling centers and extends hours during heat events, but it is smart to confirm locations and hours before heading out. Consider shifting outdoor plans earlier or later in the day tomorrow and next Monday, keep water handy, and be ready to move indoors quickly if storms start rolling in.
