CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN PRETTY PERSISTENT OVER THE LAST FEW DAYS...AS
HAVE THE TEMPERATURES. READINGS HAVE BEEN STUBBORN TO SWAY MORE THAN
3 TO 5 DEGREES FROM DAY TO NIGHT IN THE DAMP AND CLOUDY WEATHER.

LOOKING AHEAD...
LOW PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO LINGER ACROSS NORTHERN MICHIGAN
THROUGH EARLY FRIDAY MORNING. THE RENEWED RAIN SHOWER DEVELOPMENT
FROM OVERNIGHT WILL SLOWLY SWEEP FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS ALL OF

POSSIBLE AWAY FROM THE GREAT LAKES TONIGHT...MAINLY OVER THE HIGHER
