AGENCY URGED RESIDENTS TO SEEK HIGHER GROUND AND STAY THERE UNTIL THE DANGER PASSES. HE SAID
IT EARLIER TONIGHT, BRIAN THAT
THEY WERE IN STORE FOR MORE
RAIN. LOOKS LIKE THAT’S NOT
STOPPING ANYTIME SOON. YOU KNOW,
THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS GIVING
A LOT OF RAIN TO PORTIONS OF THE
SOUTHERN STATES, THE SOUTHERN
OHIO VALLEY TO OUTSIDE OF
CINCINNATI HAVING FLOODING
ISSUES AND WHEN WE SAY FLASH
FLOOD EMERGENCY, THAT’S WHEN WE
KNOW WE’RE REALLY HAVING
PROBLEMS. THAT’S THE HIGHEST WE
CAN GO WITH IT LIFE THREATENING
SITUATION. RATIONS AS WATERS ARE
RISING VERY QUICKLY, THANKFULLY.
I MEAN, OUR HEARTS GO OUT TO
THOSE FOLKS DOWN THERE. BUT
THANKS FOR US HERE. NOTHING LIKE
THAT. JUST A LITTLE LITTLE OF
RAINFOREST. SCATTERED SHOWERS.
THAT’S PRETTY MUCH WHAT WE’VE
HAD ALL EVENING LONG FOR EXACT
TRACK 40 RADAR SHOWING THAT A
LITTLE BIT OF GROUND CLOUDS
SHOWING UP AROUND THE RADAR OFF
TO THE NORTH OF METRO DETROIT.
OUTSIDE OF THAT IT’S BEEN A FEW
HIT OR MISS SHOWERS FOR EVERYONE
THIS EVENING. I WAS OUT OVER IN
DEARBORN THIS EVENING AND HAD A
COUPLE OF THOSE SHOWERS JUST
ENOUGH TO WET THE GROUND AND THE
CAR AND I THINK THAT WILL
CONTINUE AS WE GO THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS TONIGHT AND IN
OR MONDAY AS WELL, PLENTY OF
CLOUD COVER STICKING AROUND
TONIGHT. TOWER CAM OVER DOWNTOWN
DETROIT. A GRAY GLOOMY PICTURE
HERE TEMPERATURES INTO THE
SIXTIES FOR MOST EVERYONE, BUT
IT’S STILL FEELING JUST A LITTLE
BIT HUMID OUTSIDE 67 RIGHT NOW.
CITY AIRPORT 66 GROSSE ILE 65 AT
METRO AIRPORT. 61 RIGHT NOW IN
FLINT, 62. HOW AND 64 THIS
EVENING CHECKING IN WITH US OVER
IN ANN ARBOR, YOU CAN SEE THE
CLOUD COVER HERE ON CLOUDS AND
RIGHT ARE PRETTY MUCH HOLDING
TOUGH FOR THE SOUTHERN TWO
THIRDS OF THE STATE STARTING TO
GET SOME OF THAT, CLEARING OFF
TO THE NORTH NORTH OF MOUNT
PLEASANT UP TOWARD CADILLAC, AND
THEN A FEW SHOWERS SHOWING UP TO
OUR GRAND RAPIDS, I THINK WILL
HOLD ON TO A FEW SHOWERS TONIGHT
AS WELL AS TOMORROW. THAT
FRONTAL BOUNDARY STILL RIGHT ON
TOP OF THE REGION, JUST TO THE
SOUTH OF DETROIT, NORTH OF
PITTSBURGH AND NORTH OF
INDIANAPOLIS, SO WE ARE ON THE
NORTHERN FRINGE. WHICH OF THIS
AND AS THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY
CONTINUES TO PULL OFF TO THE
SOUTH AND EAST VERY SLOWLY, WE
WILL START TO SEE IMPROVING
CONDITIONS, ESPECIALLY MONDAY
AFTERNOON AND INTO MONDAY
EVENING. I’M GOING TO HOLD ONTO
CLOUDS AND A FEW SHOWERS EVEN
THOUGH CLOUDS AND RADARS JUST
KEEPING US CLOUDY EARLY TOMORROW
MORNING BY EIGHT O’CLOCK, I
THINK BY THE AFTERNOON WILL
STILL WATCH THE RADAR FOR SOME
OF THOSE SCATTERED SHOWERS AS
WELL. FOUR PM TOMORROW AFTERNOON
. MUCH OF THE SAME. DON’T CANCEL
THE PLANS, BUT THEN WE START TO
BREAK UP THAT CLOUD COVER LATE
MONDAY NIGHT OVERNIGHT INTO
EARLY ON TUESDAY MORNING. 10
O’CLOCK TUESDAY MORNING WILL GO
PARTLY CLOUDY AND THEN MAYBE
EVEN MOSTLY SUNNY BY THE TIME WE
GET TO LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON,
WELL, DRY THINGS OUT AGAIN
OVERNIGHT. TUESDAY NIGHT NO
WEDNESDAY WITH MORE SUNSHINE ON
THE WAY BY THE TIME WE GET TO
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, THEN OUR
NEXT CHANCE OF RAIN COMES AFTER
TODAY AND TOMORROW INTO NEXT
WEEKEND. THE MODELS, BOTH OF THE
MAJOR MODELS ARE SHOWING
RAINFALL. NOW THE TIMING IS A
BIG DIFFERENCE APART BETWEEN THE
21 OF THEM HERE SHOWING BY EIGHT
O’CLOCK ON SATURDAY MORNING,
MOST OF THE STATE WEST OF
DETROIT DEALING WITH RAIN AND
KEEPS IT INTO THE FORECAST ALL
THROUGHOUT SATURDAY OVERNIGHT
INTO SUNDAY AS WELL. SIX O’CLOCK
SUNDAY MORNING STILL HOLDING
ONTO SCATTERED SHOWERS OVER A
GOOD PORTION OF THE REGION. IT
LOOKS LIKE WE GET ANOTHER AREA
OF LOW PRESSURE AND AN UPPER
LEVEL DISTURBANCE WORKING INTO
THE REGION WITH WHAT WE CALL A
BLOCKING PATTERN. JUST IMAGINE
YOUR DRAIN CLOGGED UP. THAT’S
WHAT’S FORECAST TO HAPPEN OVER
THE WEEKEND IN THE UPPER LEVELS
OF THE ATMOSPHERE OUTSIDE OF
METRO DETROIT, BUT THAT WILL
AFFECT OUR WEATHER WITH RAIN IN
THE FORECAST. NOW THE TIMING IS
STILL IN DISPUTE. BUT AS I WAS
SAYING, BUT RIGHT NOW WE’RE JUST
GOING TO GO AHEAD AND KEEP
CHANCES OF SHOWERS IN THE
FORECAST AS WE GO THROUGH BOTH
NEXT SATURDAY AND NEXT SUNDAY
SHOWERS INTO THE FORECAST
TOMORROW AS WELL. SIXTIES IN THE
MORNING MID SEVENTIES IS ALL
WE’RE GOING TO MUSTER BY
TOMORROW AFTERNOON WITH THAT
NORTHEAST WIND ABOUT 5 TO 10
MILES AN HOUR WILL DROP TO THE
MID SIXTIES HEADING FOR 65
OVERNIGHT TONIGHT, KEEPING THE
CLOUDS AROUND AND A FEW SHOWERS
AS WELL. WITH THAT NORTHEAST
WIND ABOUT 5 TO 10 MILES AN HOUR
, IMPROVING CONDITIONS ON
TUESDAY, HEADING FOR 80, THEN
LOW EIGHTIES ON WEDNESDAY, LOTS
OF SUNSHINE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
IN WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY. WE CONTINUE A SLOW
WARMING TREND INTO THE MID
EIGHTIES. BY THE TIME WE GET TO
THE END OF THE WEEK ON FRIDAY,
AND THEN THEY’LL SHOWER CHANCES
COME BACK IN BOTH SATURDAY AND
SUNDAY, RIGHT NOW, JUST BECAUSE
OF THE TIMING DIFFERENCES IN
MOST OF THE MAJOR MODELS, WE’RE
GOING TO GET AT LEAST SOME
SUNSHINE IN THERE, BUT THAT PART
OF THE FORECAST IS UP FOR
DEBATE. I’D LIKE TO SEE WHAT THE
MODELS DO OVER THE NEXT COUPLE
OF DAYS. ONCE THEY GET RID OF
THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT HAS
BEEN SITTING HERE FOR ABOUT THE
PAST 36 HOURS, SO KEEP THE
UMBRELLAS HANDY. MAYBE HAVE SOME
INDOOR PLANS FOR TOMORROW FOR
SOME OF THOSE BARBECUES TONIGHT,
EVEN WITH THE CLOUDS AROUND AND
A FEW SHOWERS. IT WASN’T BAD. SO
