Rain to return Thursday - Should give entire state a good soaking

Temperatures should cool down a bit over the coming days, but only by a bit. We're still going to be riding high in the 50s and 60s with comfortable weather and high pressure until early Thursday morning. That's when a low pressure system will arrive and bring a fair amount of rain to the state, with the looking to occur in the western portion of the U.P.

This rain is actually going to be much needed after a week and a half of dry weather. There has already been some grass fire incidents in Huron County and we certainly don't want any more.

I don't really expect any significant thunderstorm development, even of a general nature, and certainly not strong. Most of this precipitation will be stratiform and won't be accompanied by much of a temperature deviation from what we experience the rest of the week. The weekend will be quite a bit cooler than last, though, with highs likely only reaching 60° and some light rain possible. Temperatures should pick back up by next week. As of right now I'm eyeballing next Wednesday for potential thunderstorms.
