The weather in Metro Detroit is set to be quite active in the coming days. Let's break it down. Wednesday is shaping up to be a cloudy day with a good chance of rain showers. There's even a possibility of an isolated thunderstorm later in the afternoon or evening. Temperatures will hover around the low 70s, making it a warm and muggy day.

As night falls, the clouds will stick around, but the rain should take a break. It will still feel warm and humid, with temperatures dropping to the upper 50s or lower 60s.

Now, here's where things get interesting. Thursday is looking quite stormy. A warm front will move in, followed by a cold front late at night. This combo could bring some strong to severe thunderstorms, especially late Thursday night into early Friday morning. The Storm Prediction Center has flagged most of the region with a Slight Risk for severe weather.

So, what can we expect if these storms hit? Damaging winds are the main concern, along with heavy rainfall. There might even be some hail, and while it's unlikely, an isolated tornado can't be ruled out. The good news is that these storms are expected to roll in after sunset, which should help reduce their intensity.

Friday will start with a few thunderstorms, but the day should dry out and warm up, with temperatures reaching the lower 80s. The weekend starts with a mix of sun and clouds, and temperatures in the mid-70s. The dry spell will last through Monday, with temperatures in the 70s. But keep an eye out, as rain showers are expected to return by late Tuesday night, with temperatures dropping to the upper 60s.
