The greatest risk for damaging wind gusts, hail, and a possible tornado is at the farther north and west because of the storms arriving there when it’s warmer, plus, the position of a core of stronger jet stream winds passing southern lower Michigan.
The storms will have severe downpours, and some flooding is also possible. But, that may be mitigated because the front will be moving eastward steadily and limiting the amount of time that the storms will be overhead.
