Metro Detroit Weather: Warm finish to the workweek

A milder finish to the workweek for today with partly sunny skies and highs climbing into the upper 40s and low 50s. It’ll be breezy at times with gusty southwest winds adding a bit of a Spring preview. Clouds mix in later in the day before temperatures fall back into the mid-20s overnight with a continued light breeze.

A milder start to the weekend gives way to another quick return to Winter. Saturday brings a mix of clouds and limited sun with highs returning into the upper 30s to near 40 before winds shift and increase late in the day. A system moves in Saturday night with rain likely transitioning to snow as colder air returns, bringing the chance for light accumulations by early Sunday and a few slick spots for the morning. Sunday turns colder and breezy with highs near 30 degrees and a few leftover flurries before quieter but chilly conditions settle in to wrap up the weekend.
