Detroit is waking up to clear skies and a brisk 48 degrees Saturday morning, but the weekend is about to turn noticeably warmer. Saturday should stay sunny with a high near 63, followed by a mostly sunny Sunday topping out around 70.
The National Weather Service expects light northeast winds of 3 to 7 mph Saturday, with no rain in the city forecast. That makes for a crisp start and an easy outdoor afternoon, especially once temperatures climb into the low 60s.
A Small Shower Chance North Of M-59
Saturday night should be mostly clear with a low near 46. A few showers could brush areas north of M-59 late Saturday night into Sunday, but the chance of rain in Detroit remains low at about 8%.
Cooler Monday Could Set Up Frost
Monday returns to sunny weather with a high near 63, but nighttime temperatures dip to around 42. The NWS discussion warns that frost could develop early Tuesday morning in colder spots, even though the city forecast remains mainly clear. Tuesday afternoon is expected to rebound to around 63.
The dry stretch continues through the rest of the week, with sunny highs near 71 on Wednesday and Thursday and around 69 on Friday. For anyone making outdoor plans, Sunday and the middle of next week look like the warmest windows.
The latest outlook is a substantive update to Hoodline's earlier forecast, which centered on rain before the weekend. In plain English: jacket weather Saturday morning, short-sleeve potential by Sunday afternoon, and a close eye on the thermometer overnight Monday.
