LANSING, Mich. — Showers and storms from Thursday dropped heavy rainfall mainly focused in the northern portion of the lower peninsula. Larger rainfall totals in our neighborhoods were located in Ionia County and southern portions of Jackson County. No major impacts from yesterday's storms will impact the morning commute today.
As the cold front advances through this morning, wind gusts have exceeded 30 mph across all of our neighborhoods. Once this frontal passage moves further east, winds will calm down with gusts this afternoon ranging from 15 to 20 mph.
High temps today will only reach the mid to upper 70's with mostly cloudy skies throughout the morning and early afternoon and the possibility to see some breaking in the cloud cover in the mid afternoon hours.
