Elevated Wildfire Risk this Week -- DNR Daily Fire Danger Rating can be found HERE.

The sunny and mostly dry start to the week in Upper Michigan becomes interrupted Tuesday night through early Wednesday as the southern branch of an Eastern Canada system brushes the U.P. with rain showers and isolated thunderstorms. The system brings a brief cool-down midweek. Then, high pressure build towards Memorial Day Weekend, allowing for a warm stretch to prevail plus steering the storm track away from the region until rain chances break through Tuesday.
