Southbound I-75 at Miller Road is slow and northbound direction has ponding on roadways. Heavy rain has passed the Vehicle City, but time will be needed for the highway to drain off. Take it slow while traveling through the storms.

A few showers are developing in west Michigan and we are watching for them to near mid-Michigan this evening. Path should keep them mainly south of the area. If you have outdoor plans in the next few hours, monitor radar in the First Alert Weather app.

International Space Station and a full moon both grace the skies tonight. Skies will be partly cloudy so viewing could be a bit tricky at times. Don't forget you can use the satellite layer on the radar to track the clouds in the First Alert Weather app.

In case anyone has wild ideas of swimming this weekend, the Great Lakes are still cold at this point in the season. Cold shock would be a risk for all swimmers in any of the Great Lakes. It is best to wait for it to warm up and start the summer swim season then.

Wildfire smoke is spending Friday evening in Traverse City. A smoke plume will be thick for Friday evening in the Lower Peninsula. Be on the lookout for more vivid sunsets tonight.

Wildfire smoke is impacting the air quality today. If you notice your "allergies" are bothering you, it could be the smoke. Stay inside with the AC on to help clear the air. Smoke starts to thin a little bit on Friday.

Hot air arrives this weekend! Take care of yourself the next few days. Check on the elderly, family, friends and neighbors as we all try to beat this heat.

ALL CLEAR from severe storms this Friday evening. If you plan to get back outside, here is a look at the bonfire forecast. Be safe while around the fire.

Relief from the summer heat has arrived! This cool spell doesn't feel like July weather. These temperatures are comparable to late May or early/mid September.
