Spring Warmup Builds Before Midweek Front Brings Storm Risk

Forecasters now focus on a midweek cold front with a low risk of severe storms.

Overview

  • Following Saturday’s chill, Sunday turns sunnier and more seasonable across much of the Ohio Valley, Great Lakes, and Northeast with highs mostly in the 50s.
  • Southerly to southwest winds drive a quick warmup Monday through Wednesday, pushing many areas into the 60s and 70s with a few spots near 80 depending on cloud and front timing.
  • A strong cold front due Tuesday into Wednesday brings rising chances for showers and a period of thunderstorms, with breezy conditions ahead of it.
  • The Storm Prediction Center highlights a Marginal Risk, its lowest level, in places like Metro Detroit for Tuesday, meaning a low chance of isolated severe storms with damaging winds and hail possible.
  • Cooler, unsettled weather follows late week as highs slip back into the 40s and 50s with recurring rain chances, and parts of northern New England could see a rain–snow mix as colder air returns.
