Fire Weather Planning Forecast for northern Lower Michigan
National Weather Service Gaylord MI
417 AM EDT Sat Jun 7 2025

...Dry today, increasing moisture later Sunday into next week...

.DISCUSSION...
Dry and hazy today, with generally light winds. Lake breeze
penetrates inland, resulting in predominantly east winds this
afternoon east of 75. Mixing heights rise to around 5 to 8 kft
away from the immediate coast, and will aid in dry conditions
this afternoon. Relative humidity will drop into the low to mid
30s most areas as a result, but some interior locations could see
upper 20s. South to southeast winds will be breezy on Sunday along
with midday to early afternoon humidity in the 30s. RHs begin
increasing from west to east through the afternoon and evening as
the next band of rain and embedded thunder approaches.
