First Snowfall Forecast for Lower Michigan 2024
The first snowfall of the 2024/2025 season is likely for Most of Lower Michigan between Wednesday night and Thursday morning.
The US Drought Monitor shows 87% of the CONUS in some sort of drought. Will we get enough rain to mitigate this over the Great Lake area?
That 87% is the highest percent of the CONUS in drought, going back to January 2000 (or maybe even farther).

Cooler Weather into next week, then a warm up!
Seems another developing closed upper low my cool the eastern CONUS off by 19th of August (or the 3rd full week of August). This would likely be a wet period over the east.
Expect Heavy Rain and Likely Localized Flooding from Central Illinois to Central Lower Michigan Tonight into Wednesday Evening.
An Extended Period of Hot and Humid Weather is Expected for Most of the Central and Eastern CONUS Next Week (June 16-22).
Looks like June may see that pattern flip I wrote about last week.
This would suggest cooler than normal over the eastern CONUS and warmer than normal over the western CONUS. The wet weather over the central CONUS may last into the first week of June but most of the rest of June is expected to feature near to below normal precipitation.
