ROYAL OAK, Mich. (WJBK) -- Weather Authority Ben Bailey says many parts of Michigan will be meeting or beating record-high temperatures over the next 24 hours.
Bailey says high temperatures are expected to match a record high Tuesday of 58 degrees set in 1914. He says the temperature Wednesday is expected to top the record of 53 for that day in 1969.
Strong south winds and a strong jet stream are bringing temperatures and precipitation more typical of the southern U.S.

He says the winter warmth ends with a cold front coming Wednesday.
