The updated outlook from the Storm Prediction Center was released around 9:00 A.M., and it still includes most of West Michigan in the slight risk area for severe weather later today.
Despite the fact that the overall risk area has not moved much, there are indications that there's a lower risk of severe storms than had been anticipated in previous outlooks. The 30% risk area for wind and hail have been downgraded to 15% (click the link at the top for those detailed graphics). Also, the breaks in cloud cover will be limited later today, keeping the atmosphere more stable than it would be with sun and warmer air. Still, we could see a few marginally severe storms later.
