The majority of northern Michigan is anticipated to be impacted by scattered storms and rising humidity through Thursday.
These storms are predicted to bring with them the potential for severe winds, locally heavy rain, and probable power outages.
It is important for people living in Gaylord and throughout the region to get ready for the possibility of rapidly forming storms and very humid weather, especially in the evenings.
The National Weather Service in Gaylord, which is located in the United States, has predicted that a front that is moving slowly would bring about periods of showers and storms, with the largest risk of severe weather occurring late Wednesday into Thursday.
Wednesday will see high temperatures that will reach the mid 80s and low 90s, while nightly lows will continue to be uncomfortably warm, ranging from 57 to 68 degrees throughout the night.
Especially in the Eastern Upper Peninsula, storms have the potential to bring forth downpours and occasional instances of flooding.
Because of the heavy rain and the ponding that could occur in low locations, roads in the counties of Otsego, Cheboygan, and Emmet could become slick.
Heavy rains are causing power crews to be on high alert for the possibility of power outages, and drivers are being encouraged to reduce their speed.
During storms, residents should avoid traveling, charge their electronic devices, and protect any items that are outside. It is possible that showers could continue to fall on Friday until a break in humidity brings in air that is cooler and drier.
For many people in northern Michigan, this is the first stretch of broad summer heat, and the authorities are urging care with regard to activities that involve being outside.
