Metro Detroit Weather: Extreme Heat Watch issued for southeast Michigan

A warm front moves through tonight into Monday morning. A few showers are possible along the front, but they will mainly be overnight. Temperatures climb Monday into the upper 80s and low 90s across the area with partly sunny skies.

Temperatures continue to climb, and so do the dew points, Tuesday through Thursday. High temperatures will be in the mid to upper 90s, near 100°. With dew points in the low 70s, it will feel more like 105-109° each day. There will be little relief overnight with temperatures staying in the mid to upper 70s. Plan now for ways to stay cool; drink plenty of water, wear light and loose fitting clothing, and limit time outside during the afternoon, the hottest time of the day. Check on your pets, neighbors, and family members and make sure they are staying cool during these hot temperatures.

A system tries to break the heat starting Friday, with a chance for showers and thunderstorms. High temperatures likely won't break yet and stay in the low to mid 90s through the weekend, before slowly cooling next week.

Tonight: Partly cloudy with lows in the mid 60s. Winds: Light

Monday: Partly sunny with a slight shower chance north. Highs in the upper 80s to low 90s. Winds: S 5-10 mph.

Tuesday: Mostly sunny with highs in the mid to upper 90s, near 100°.
