Strong to severe storms move through Southeast Michigan on Tuesday

(CBS DETROIT) - Strong to severe storms are likely until 3 p.m. this afternoon, with the leading weather hazards being wind damage, hail, heavy rainfall, and low-end tornado chances for the region. However, our southern zones have a slightly greater threat for any strong storms to develop.

To account for this, your NEXT Weather team has declared this afternoon through 3 PM a NEXT Weather Alert Day due to inclement weather.

This system already has a history of producing severe storms and creating tree damage on the west side of the state, so make sure you are staying weather-prepared today. There remains a slight risk (level 2/5) and a marginal risk (level 1/5); this means isolated to severe storms are possible through the region.
