Isolated risk of strong storms heading into Easter weekend for Southeast Michigan

There is an isolated risk of strong storms heading into the Easter weekend.

A warm front is moving through Southeast Michigan on Friday into Saturday. This will put much of the state in what is called the warm sector. 

Warm moist air in place will lead to a chance for some strong to severe storms. 

All of Southeast Michigan is at a 1/5 on the severe risk scale from the Storm Prediction Center.

The severity of the storms will be about the timing. 

The later the storms move in, the less energy there will be to fire up stronger storms.

Most of the rain come late on Good Friday.
