A Northern Plains system spreads rain showers, few thunderstorms over Upper Michigan through the weekend. Even with the rainy disturbances, temperatures gradually rise undisturbed as warm air ridges over the region. High temperatures from the 60s to 70s possible Sunday through early next week.

The flood risk remains in Upper Michigan as the combination of warmer air and rainy episodes could accelerate snowmelt rates in the coming days.
