Marquette, MI – Light lake-effect rain showers will linger across Upper Michigan today, particularly near Lake Superior, before drier weather returns Friday, according to the National Weather Service in Marquette.
Forecasters note that a few snowflakes may mix in across the interior west this morning, but no accumulation is expected. Highs will stay cool in the upper 30s to upper 40s, while overnight lows drop into the upper 20s to upper 30s under partly cloudy skies.
A drying trend begins Friday as high pressure moves in from the west, bringing mostly sunny skies and a gradual warm-up into the weekend. By Saturday, temperatures are expected to rebound into the low to mid-50s across much of the Upper Peninsula.
The weekend outlook calls for mild and dry conditions—ideal for outdoor activities and late-season leaf viewing—as Michigan transitions into the final full week of October.
