Golf fans attending the Rocket Classic at the Detroit Golf Club can expect favorable weather for the opening round. Temperatures are rising across Metro Detroit as a warm spell takes hold of Southeast Michigan. You will see afternoon highs in the mid to upper 80s for today and Friday.
While clouds will begin to gather on Friday, most of the daylight hours should remain dry for spectators. A weather system is moving into the Great Lakes region, which will shift conditions by Friday evening. Expect scattered showers and isolated, non-severe thunderstorms throughout the region.
These rain chances persist through at least part of Saturday. Outdoor plans should remain flexible as the weather pattern changes, but the rain will not be constant throughout the day. If you are heading out to the tournament, keep an eye on local updates for the latest conditions.
The final round on Sunday looks promising. Most of the moisture will clear out, leaving the Detroit Golf Club dry for the tournament conclusion. High pressure returns early next week to bring back sunshine and summer heat. Expect temperatures to approach 90 degrees by the middle of next week with higher humidity.
