West Michigan – A cold front pushing into the state on Thursday will bring showers and thunderstorms to the area. We may see some gusty winds and small hail but the threat of severe weather should stay south of Michigan.

As the cold front slides into West Michigan during the afternoon, more thunderstorms will develop with the best chance of stronger storms along and south  of I-94.  All the precipitation should end by early evening.

Since the front will be moving through West Michigan rather quickly, rainfall amounts should not be excessive. Most areas will see between .25″ and .50″.
