Michigan — A heavy gray sky presses low over the pines east of Marquette, softening the early light and carrying a cold bite along Lake Superior’s shoreline. The ground sits damp and still, and the air feels charged—quiet now, but clearly shifting toward a more active weekend.
Today stays calm and mostly sunny for Upper Michigan, with highs near 50 and a light south wind. Residents traveling along US-41 or running early holiday errands will find good conditions through the morning. Use this window wisely, because the atmosphere begins to reload tonight as clouds thicken and winds increase.
Saturday brings a 40% chance of showers as temperatures rise into the low 50s. A subtle warm layer aloft mixes with strengthening northwest winds later in the day, which may trigger a brief rain-to-snow changeover Saturday night. To be fair, accumulation looks minimal, but gusts near 30 mph could create spotty reduced visibility—especially west of town or near exposed ridgelines.
Sunday marks a sharper turn toward early winter. Colder air sweeps across Lake Superior, feeding scattered snow showers across Marquette and nearby communities. These bursts won’t blanket the region, yet quick squalls could coat grassy areas or create slick patches on untreated side streets. This is a classic November “Winter Tease,” an early sign of deeper cold ahead of Thanksgiving week.
Monday stays partly sunny and chilly. Tuesday brings more clouds and a reinforcing push of cool air, hinting at stronger systems lining up beyond midweek.
