Metro Detroit Weather Forecast July 16, 2024 -- 4 p.m. Update

Humidity Expected to Decrease with Pleasant Weather Ahead

Current Conditions and Evening Forecast

Well, we were spared that nasty weather currently hovering around other regions. Here’s a live look at Mount Clemens. The good news is, less muggy weather is headed our way, which will be a pleasant change.

For this evening, expect partly cloudy skies. There could be an isolated shower especially if you live up towards the Thumb, but overall, it’s not looking too bad. The significant change to watch for is the drop in humidity over the next several days. Currently, it’s still pretty humid out there with temperatures hovering around 85 at Metro, 89 at City Airport, and 86 in Mount Clemens. Factoring in the humidity, it feels like 92 at Metro and around 90 in both Mount Clemens and Pontiac.

Humidity and Temperature Changes

Let’s talk about the dew points—this tells us how humid it’s going to be. Tonight, we’re still in a very warm, moist atmosphere. As we head into tomorrow, you’ll start to feel a decrease in humidity, even though it might be a little soupy overnight. By tomorrow night and into Thursday, it will feel much more pleasant due to the dry, northerly winds brought in by high pressure, making for a much more comfortable end to the work week.

Dog Walk Forecast

If you’re walking your dog this evening, temperatures will be around 80 degrees by 8 p.m. with partly cloudy skies. There might be an isolated shower, but it’s nothing you should change your plans for.

Upcoming Days

We had some severe weather warnings here overnight, but thankfully it has been quiet, and it will stay quiet for the next several days. Here’s what we can expect:

  • Wednesday: Partly cloudy, isolated showers possible, high of 80 degrees.
  • Thursday: Much cooler and dry, high of 76 degrees.
  • Friday: Dry and pleasant, slightly below normal temperatures.

Weekend Forecast

This weekend promises really nice weather—sunshine with a high of 82 on Saturday and 83 on Sunday. For those without air conditioning, this will be a much-needed break as cooler, less humid nights make sleeping more comfortable.

Enjoy the upcoming pleasant weather, and stay updated with all your weather needs here on Local 4!
