Battle Creek Weekly Weather: September 9-15 Forecast

Battle Creek starts this forecast week on a wet and breezy note, but the clouds should give way to a much brighter stretch by Thursday. The National Weather Service expects showers to be likely Wednesday, followed by a chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon. The high should reach about 82 degrees, with southwest gusts as high as 25 mph.

 

Thursday and Friday look like the best outdoor days, with highs near 77 and plenty of sunshine. The weekend stays mild, though a small shower chance returns Saturday night and Sunday. A sharper change may arrive Monday, when model guidance points to cooler temperatures and rain. Tuesday should turn milder, but showers may remain nearby. Check the National Weather Service Battle Creek forecast as plans get closer.
