Severe Weather Threats in Michigan | Grand Rapids News

Michigan braces for severe weather as thunderstorms threaten Thursday into Friday, fueled by a stubborn stationary front and scorching heat indexes nearing 100 degrees. Strong winds and flash flood risks loom, especially near the Wisconsin border and I-96 corridor, with repeated storm passages heightening danger. Hail may replace damaging winds on Friday, while temps stay hot—upper 80s to low 90s in the south, cooler in the Upper Peninsula. Relief arrives over the weekend with dry, stable conditions and above-average temps in the UP, though scattered storms linger in southern Michigan. Next week brings uncertainty: a potential western system could drop up to a quarter-inch of rain and gusty winds by Wednesday, but timing remains unclear.
