If you’re planning a family gathering or trip around Father’s Day weekend in Marquette, Michigan, it’s best to keep an umbrella handy. The National Weather Service (NWS) is predicting a wet and cool weekend, starting with a high chance of rain showers on Friday.
Showers Begin Friday Afternoon
Rain is expected to start after 2 p.m. on Friday, with a chance of up to 80%, especially along US-41. The morning may stay dry, but winds will pick up slightly, blowing from the east at around 5 mph. By evening, roads could become slippery, so drive carefully—especially on M-553 and County Road 550.
Rainfall totals could reach around a quarter inch Friday, and light showers will continue through the night.
Cloudy and Cool Weekend Weather
The weekend will stay cloudy and cool, with 40% chances of rain on Saturday and Sunday. Temperatures will be quite mild, between the mid-50s and low 60s (°F), which is cool for early summer. So, if you’re planning to go to the lake or have an outdoor Father’s Day picnic, it’s better to prepare an indoor backup plan.
Rain Eases Monday, Returns Tuesday
Monday will be partly sunny, and temperatures will rise a bit to around 68°F. However, more rain is expected Monday night, and there’s a chance of thunderstorms by Tuesday afternoon.
Overall, it looks like a rainy and cloudy stretch of days for Upper Michigan, so be ready with raincoats, check weather alerts regularly, and avoid water-covered roads.
