________________

The incredible spring weather continued today with highs in the 70's for almost everyone. High pressure keeps things quiet the next 24 hours but you will feel a lot of heat!

Tonight looks absolutely fine with high thin cirrus clouds rolling across the sky. Lows drop into the 50's with only the coldest spots hitting the upper 40's. Winds go light to less than 10 mph.

The heat comes back tomorrow with highs in the 80's and even low 90's. Slightly cooler conditions are forecast in the U.P. and lakeside where highs hit the upper 70's. Skies still look nice with plenty of sunshine. Winds will be very strong at 10-25 mph with higher gusts. Overnight, you could see a few showers or storms but most places look to stay dry.

Friday has the chance of a morning shower otherwise you'll see partly cloudy conditions. Temperatures will be cooler with highs mostly in the 70's. Winds stay strong coming from the West at 10-25 mph.

The Holiday Weekend still has more questions than answers. This is general plan: You'll see scattered afternoon showers/storms develop Saturday and they'll push north Saturday night. A few showers are possible early Sunday otherwise is looks dry. Come Monday, a cold front is forecast to slide across the region setting off scattered showers and thunderstorms. Most of the weekend will have highs in the 70's to middle 80's.
