WEST MICHIGAN - After all the recent days filled with blue sky and sunshine, more clouds will dominate the area as a low pressure system tracks into the state this weekend. This will generate scattered showers and thunderstorms at times, but not all day rains. Temperatures will be held down to the mid/upper 70s.
This is a slow-moving system, that's why it controls our weather for about two to three days. See image below from our forecast model valid for Sunday at 6 P.M.
We expect to kick this system further east on Monday and see some sunshine finally return with drier conditions. Some areas will likely tally between a quarter and half inch of rain, but other locations that get caught under some of the heavy downpours or multiple storms cells could see more than an inch. See image below from the GFS and European forecast models below.
The start and middle off next week is expected to be drier and sunnier. Get the complete West Michigan forecast at www.fox17online.com/weather.
