Plan for ponding and puddles as you hit the road. The widespread rain will come to a close this morning, but some showers will be around into the afternoon and evening too. 

Areas of fog develop tonight, potentially dense again. Otherwise, a quiet start to the weekend. A system from the south grazes Southeast Michigan on Saturday night into Sunday morning with the chance for rain or snow, but not a lot of either. 

Temps are steady as we wind down January with the bitter cold air staying away for a while.
