Detroit, Mich. – Commuters across southeast Michigan may face slick roads Friday morning as patchy fog and light rain move through the region. Drivers on I-75 and I-94 should plan for reduced visibility and slower travel before skies begin to clear by afternoon.
According to the National Weather Service, a line of showers will develop Friday morning with a 30 percent chance of rain before 11 a.m. Northwest winds around 7 mph could also complicate early travel. By the afternoon, conditions improve as sunshine breaks through and temperatures climb near 77 degrees.
Saturday will bring a much brighter picture. Highs near 79 degrees under clear skies will give residents across Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties a taste of late-September warmth. Sunday looks even warmer, with highs reaching the low 80s — a reminder that fall is still sharing space with summer.
Looking into the first days of October, Detroit will stay under mostly sunny skies with daytime highs in the upper 70s. Nights will cool to the mid-50s, but no frost or freezing temperatures are in sight. For now, winter’s chill remains weeks away.
Residents should use Friday morning caution while driving in fog and wet conditions, but the weekend will be ideal for outdoor plans. Warm weather sticks around through early next week, with only a slight dip by midweek.
