DETROIT – It’s shaping up to be a Toasty Tuesday. Today will likely be the warmest day of the week as highs top out around 90, but humidity still stays on the lower side under hazy skies. The wildfire smoke from Central Canada lingers across Michigan which extended the Air Quality Alert for Southeast Michigan through tonight.

On July 15, rain and thunderstorms are expected in southern Michigan and in the Upper Peninsula. Then, more rain and thunderstorms are forecast statewide on July 16. Widespread haze is included in the forecast for northern Michigan as the Canadian wildfire smoke moves over Michigan.

Expect another smoggy day in metro Detroit. The Southeast Michigan Council of Governments (SEMCOG) has declared its eighth Air Quality Advisory of the season for Tuesday, July 15, citing elevated levels of ozone. Tuesday's Air Quality Index (AQI) is orange, which is considered unhealthy for sensitive groups.
