The cool down continues across Mid-Michigan with frost and freeze concerns into the weekend

We are still tracking mostly cloudy skies today, but with influence from a ridging pattern, the late morning hours could bring some sunshine to our neighborhoods and peaks of sunshine could continue into the afternoon due to the return of dry air that will keep any showers that develop today light and no too impactful.

Overnight and into Friday morning, our next low will bring an occluded front across our neighborhoods. Showers will be mainly focused to the south with areas along and south of I-94 possibly seeing some more showers through the morning hours. Continued showers and cloud cover across our neighborhoods could hinder frost development, but temperatures ranging in the mid to lower 30's tonight could already create issues for our blossoming plants and crops.

Make sure to cover up plants or bring them inside tonight and make sure to do the same until Sunday morning before we start warming again. Winds will remain weak into Friday morning and Saturday morning. This is a favorable condition for frost development. At the moment, Saturday morning could bring below freezing temperatures and best conditions for frost.
