Detroit, Mich. – Morning commuters in Detroit should brace for low visibility Wednesday as patchy fog develops before 10 a.m. Conditions may slow traffic on I-75 and I-94, especially for drivers heading into the city at daybreak.
According to the National Weather Service in Detroit/Pontiac, fog will linger into mid-morning before skies clear, bringing highs near 83 degrees. Light winds will keep the air calm, but drivers are urged to use headlights and leave extra space on the road.
By Wednesday afternoon, sunshine dominates with comfortable fall-like warmth holding through the evening. Overnight, skies stay mostly clear with lows near 58. Thursday looks nearly identical, with sunshine and slightly warmer highs around 85 degrees, making it the warmest day of the week.
Friday introduces some changes as clouds increase, though temperatures still reach 80. The weekend trends cooler with Saturday highs near 78 under partly sunny skies. Rain chances return late Sunday into Monday, potentially interrupting outdoor plans and bringing relief from lingering humidity.
This stretch of early fall weather offers pleasant afternoons but requires caution during morning commutes. Drivers should prepare for fog again Wednesday morning and check updated advisories before traveling.
More updates will be issued if weekend rain systems strengthen. For now, skies remain mostly clear and warm through Thursday night.
