Our First Thunderstorms Possible Today – Mid Michigan

We woke to moderate rain this morning and it has continued since then.  There was 0.29″ in my rain gauge at 8:30. Temperatures will be quite warm today giving us a small chance for severe weather tonight.  The greatest chance is for the states to our south with a good chance for tornadic activity in these areas.  Hopefully, we don’t see a repeat of last Friday.
