WEST MICHIGAN — Mother Nature wants to remind West Michigan that summer isn't over, quite yet! Temperatures Sunday are expected to rise to the upper 80s with some communities near I-94 making a run at 90°.

Usually this time of year, average highs reach 81°. This week, most forecast highs are much warmer than that.

Much of the U.S. will be battling with abnormally warm temperatures as a ridge pushes in from the south.

Interestingly enough, we do expect some relief from the heat. The Climate Prediction Center anticipates within the next 6 to 10 days, temperatures will tank back to below average. This is being reflected in our temperatures for next weekend, with highs on Sunday expected to be in the upper 70s.
