- Fog this morning with chance of rain this afternoon
Clearing skies and light winds at the surface has provided for a
better environment for fog development this morning. The dew
point depression remains around zero with a very moist surface
However, while periods of dense fog will occur, there is enough
wind where fog will shift and visibility will improve periodically
at times.The inversion is extremely shallow, which helps to
explain the changing visibility, however, periods of dense fog
will continue through sunrise before lifting and dissipating by
mid morning.
A weak frontal boundary will sweep through northern lower and
clip the US 10 corridor there is enough lift and moisture to allow
for a chance of rain through central Michigan.
- Warmer and Drier weather ahead
A ridge will continue to move over head through the weekend and
into next week this which will bring warmer and drier weather.
Temps could reach into the 80s Sunday into next week. Expect the
warm weather to continue until around mid week. An upper level
trough moving through Eastern Canada could move southward through
the NE US and into the Mid Atlantic, that could push the ridge
westward, and cause some cold air advection that would drop Max
temperatures closer to normal.

Issued at 245 AM EDT Fri Sep 26 2025
Fog has begun to develop. There remains some questions on how
dense and widespread the fog will be. Have IFR for AZO/BTL/JXN
where chances are better for fog development. Any fog that does
develop will dissipate shortly after sunrise with a few VFR clouds
and winds of 5-10 knots through the rest of the day.
