Brace Yourself, Metro Detroit: A Sudden Temperature Plunge is on the Way!
Hey there, Metro Detroit! If you’ve been enjoying the recent warm spell with temperatures dancing in the 70s, grab your jackets because a cold front is about to crash the party. Yes, you heard that right! Get ready for a jaw-dropping 30-degree temperature drop starting Tuesday. So, let’s dive into what you can expect!
Last Hurrah for the Warm Weather
Take advantage of the cozy temperatures while they last! Right now, you can soak up the warmth outdoors, but come nighttime, things will take a chilly turn. Those comfy highs in the 70s will quickly drop to a brisk 40 degrees overnight. You might want to hold onto that warm cup of hot cocoa tightly as we move into the evening.
Strong Winds Ahead
As if the drop in temperature wasn’t enough to send a shiver down your spine, strong westerly winds are set to sweep through the Metro Detroit area. With gusts exceeding a whopping 40 mph, it’s going to feel much colder than the actual temperature. So, even if you think you’re bundled up, be ready for those winds to make it feel more like you’ve stepped into the 30s!
A Rain and Snow Mix in the Morning
Tuesday morning is shaping up to be a bit wet and slushy, as there’s a chance of a light rain and melting snow mix. This combo is likely to make your morning commute a tad more exciting than usual. But not to worry, conditions should clear up by early afternoon, allowing for a bit of sunshine to peek through the clouds.
What’s in Store for Wednesday?
If you’re hoping for some sunshine, you’re in luck on Wednesday! Expect plenty of clear skies and dry weather, but don’t forget that temperatures will remain cooler than normal, with a high reaching only around 53 degrees. So be sure to layer up if you plan on stepping outside – that sweater will definitely come in handy!
