Possible potent storms on Monday prompt NEXT Weather Alert Day in Southeast Michigan

Monday is a NEXT Weather Alert Day in Southeast Michigan as CBS News Detroit tracks a low pressure system moving across the northern Great Lakes. 

The chance of storms continues to increase in coverage and intensity with the system, especially ahead and along the cold front Monday evening, moving from northwest to southeast.

Monday's storms are partially dependent on the progression of Sunday night's storms over the western Great Lakes. 

With the Sunday night storms looking to remain closer to Lake Michigan, storm activity may not reach Southeast Michigan until later Monday evening, and may limit the development and/or the intensity of the storms. However, there is a possibility of scattered showers and storms moving through the area earlier in the day.
