DETROIT, Mich. – Morning drivers across Detroit and Hamtramck may run into patchy fog before 9 a.m. Friday, but skies will clear quickly with highs climbing near 78 degrees by the afternoon. Winds will stay light, making for a warm and calm finish to the workweek.
According to the National Weather Service in Detroit, the quiet stretch continues into the weekend with mostly clear nights and sunny afternoons. Temperatures will hold steady in the upper 70s to low 80s from Saturday through Monday, providing one of the most stable weather windows in recent weeks.
Areas south into Downriver communities and north toward Royal Oak will all see nearly identical conditions: cool evenings in the upper 50s followed by warm, sunny days. Visibility issues tied to morning fog could briefly affect early travel, especially near low-lying roads and highways close to the Detroit River.
Residents planning outdoor activities, football games, or yardwork should expect ideal conditions. Officials urge caution during foggy hours, recommending headlights on low beam and extra spacing between vehicles during the morning commute.
Conditions turn partly cloudy by Monday night, but no rain is expected through midweek.
