Some light snow, with little to no accumulation, is likely Wednesday. Winds will also be strong with gusts near 35-40 mph out of the northwest.

Today: Scattered shower and storm chances in the morning. Strong to severe thunderstorms possible after 6 PM. Highs in the low to mid 60s. Detroit will reach 65° which will be a new record high temperature for the date. Winds: S 15-25 mph.

Wednesday: Temps will drop all day from the upper 40s early to the low 30s late. Rain showers are possible in the morning and snow showers are possible in the afternoon. Winds: NW 25-40 mph.
