LANSING, Mich. — Following the past few days filled with showers, storms, and mostly cloudy skies, our weather pattern will be changing heading into the weekend. Warmer and sunnier conditions are favored once we reach Saturday and Sunday with no precipitation left in sight for the 7-Day period.
High temperatures today will remain where they should be for this time of year in the lower 70's. The upper level area of low pressure still influences the forecast for the majority of the day as it begins to track south and exit the region for Friday and going forward. We can still expect mostly cloudy skies for the first half of the day as well as areas of limited visibility out on the roadways.
