The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Kara James: Friday looks mostly dry with highs in the low to mid 80s, but a stray shower/storm is possible tonight from Grand Rapids to the north/west. We also have the chance of a few more isolated to scattered storms on Friday in some areas, some of which could be marginally severe with hail and wind. A hot weekend is ahead with a chance of some storms Saturday morning, otherwise a heat wave starts with highs 90 or better from Saturday through Tuesday next week. Feels like temperatures will be soaring well into the 100s those days, so make sure you stay cool and hydrated! The overall pattern hints at much warmer than "average" through the last week of June. Stay tuned to the FOX 17 Weather Ready Team for your latest forecast updates.
