Detroit, MI – A mild Monday with scattered rain showers will mark the beginning of a significant weather shift in Michigan as the holiday week progresses. A cold front is set to bring the first substantial snowfall to the region starting Thanksgiving and lasting through the weekend.
According to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Detroit, Monday’s forecast calls for temperatures in the mid-40s to low 50s, with light rain expected throughout the day. Travelers along I-75 and other major routes should plan for reduced visibility and wet roads during commutes. By Tuesday, temperatures will plummet, with daytime highs barely reaching the low 40s and nighttime lows dipping into the upper 20s.
By midweek, a low-pressure system moving through the Midwest could bring accumulating snow to the area starting Thursday. The NWS has warned that the storm’s track remains uncertain, but current models suggest up to several inches of snow may fall on Thanksgiving afternoon and evening. Travelers planning long-distance trips are urged to prepare for hazardous conditions, particularly on interstates and less-maintained rural roads.
The extended outlook for Friday and Saturday shows continued cold with highs in the mid-30s and potential for lingering snow showers. Residents should monitor forecasts closely as updates refine the storm’s impact.
Stay informed by checking local weather alerts and plan alternate travel routes if conditions worsen. For those staying home, ensure vehicles and driveways are prepared for possible snow accumulation.
