A 4Warn Weather Alert has been issued for Thursday afternoon and evening due to the threat of severe storms across Southeast Michigan. High temperatures are expected to reach the upper 50s and upper 60s on Thursday, with showers and thunderstorms expected to develop. From I-696/I-96 south, there is a slight (level 2 out of 5) risk for severe weather, while a marginal (level 1) risk is expected from I-690 to around I-69. Hail and tornadoes are the most significant threats, with conditions favorable for large hail up to 2 inch/tennis ball-sized. However, most of the area will be at risk for isolated damaging wind gusts greater than 60 mph. The next chance for rain after Thursday's storms will be Tuesday of the week.
