LANSING, Mich. — After some early/mid morning cloudiness, high pressure will build into the region delivering sunshine and dry weather. Today brings high temperatures in the upper 30s. A wave of warmth is on the way for Thursday and Friday. High temperatures will climb to the middle to upper 40s for the end of this week and weekend. The next chance of rain arrives this weekend, but it's only a slight chance of some scattered light showers.
Longer range forecast models and trends indicate we have a good chance of above-normal temperatures before and through Christmas. The average high temperature around that time of year is in the middle 30s. This type of a moderate to strong El Nino is leading to what may be a "green" Christmas for Michigan. In fact, much of the entire nation may be seeing above average temperatures leading up to Christmas itself, so perhaps travel will be good. It looks like the pattern may start breaking down around or just after Christmas. Make sure to stay up on later forecasts.
