National Weather Service Marquette MI
601 AM EDT Mon Sep 29 2025



.DISCUSSION...

Warm weather with high temperatures 5 to 15 degrees above seasonal
averages will continue through the week. Upper level ridging will
keep the forecast dry until late in the week when a low chance for
showers returns. Deep mixing again today will bring RH values down
to around 30%, but winds will remain light. High temperatures will
top off in the mid to upper 70s with possible low 80s over the
interior west.
