Todays weather in Detroit MI - Monday - 25 May 2026

A Special Weather Statement is in effect for the Detroit area this Memorial Day morning, and patchy fog is the reason. Before you write off the day, here's the good news: once that fog burns off, Detroit is looking at a mostly sunny sky and a high near 79 degrees — about as good as a holiday Monday gets.If you're heading out early for a parade or a cookout run, slow down. Visibility can drop quickly in patchy fog, and holiday traffic makes that combination especially risky. Give yourself extra time before mid-morning and you'll be fine once the fog clears.Dress for layers to start, short sleeves by afternoon, and don't forget sunscreen if you're spending time outside. Tonight is comfortable — mostly clear, low around 57, perfect for sleeping with the windows open.Looking ahead: Tuesday climbs to 85 and stays sunny. Wednesday is where you'll want to pay attention — a high near 87 but a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms after 2 p.m. (roughly 24% precipitation chance). Thursday cleans back up with sun and a high of 79. The rest of the week holds mostly sunny and dry, with highs gradually easing from the mid-70s down to 74 by Saturday.Bottom line for today: fog first, then a Memorial Day that earns it. Drive slow this morning, and enjoy the sun when it shows up.This episode includes AI-generated content.
