Updated look at the chance for strong to severe storms Friday

LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) — Cloud cover will slightly increase across Mid-Michigan as we move throughout the rest of our Thursday, with highs climbing into the mid-60s. But our main focus is the potential for strong to severe storms across the region tomorrow evening.

The Storm Prediction Center has a Level 2 of 5, slight risk for strong to severe storms across Mid-Michigan. The primary concern will be the potential for strong, damaging winds, at or above 60 miles per hour. There is also the potential for large, quarter-size hail, and a low risk for tornado activity.

Dry conditions will remain in place as we move throughout the rest of our Thursday, with cloud cover increasing across the area.

Our first round of precipitation will move in overnight, with a few showers and non-severe thunderstorms across the region. Dry conditions will return for most of Friday, outside of the chance of an isolated shower or storm in the late morning to early afternoon.

The chance for strong to severe storms will increase across Mid-Michigan as a line of showers and thunderstorms rolls through around 9 pm Friday, continuing through around 3 am Saturday.

After the chance for storms exits the region, we will be treated to dry and mostly cloudy conditions for the start of the weekend, with highs in the upper 50s.
