After several days of warm, dry summer weather, rain chances are set to return to Mid-Michigan as we head into the weekend. While much of Friday will remain dry, a developing storm system will bring widespread showers Friday night into Saturday, with some locations potentially picking up over an inch of rainfall.
Dry Through Most of Friday
Friday will be another warm and pleasant day across the Lansing and Jackson area, although it will be cloudy.
Expect a mix of sunshine and clouds with afternoon highs reaching 88 degrees. Most communities will stay dry through the daylight hours, although an isolated shower cannot be ruled out before sunset.
Steady Rain Arrives Friday Night

Rain chances increase rapidly overnight, with widespread showers expected by Saturday morning. While thunderstorms are possible, they are expected to remain isolated.
