If updrafts do become more vigorous or organized in southern Michigan, it could result in locally gusty winds with downpours at the surface. CAPE in the hail growth layer looks fairly thin, but upper level shear may support some at least small hail growth despite the thin CAPE, and any hail melt could contribute to downdraft enhancement into a well mixed atmosphere below 5,000 feet. The latest CAMs/HREF members tend to increase convection around I-94 (and/or farther south) during the early/mid afternoon, and this convection may trend toward being surface-based east of Kalamazoo. There may be some mitigation of convection this morning in the I-96 portion of the area as lift will be minimal at that time from upper level dynamics and 850 mb wind speed divergence. MUCAPE around 1000 J/kg and effective updraft-layer shear around 30 knots. A ribbon of moisture streaming in at 800-700 mb. Mid-level lapse rates a fair 6.5 to 7 degrees C/km within a high plains sourced EML plume.

A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. The Sun's most intense and consequently most harmful UV radiation during midday hours should be decreased by minimizing exposure and seeking shade. Most people can stay in the Sun for up to 1 hour without burning, apart from children that always must be protected from sun exposure.
