The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Reece Cole: Sunday has been the sunniest day in well over a month! Hope you enjoyed it, because clouds increase again tonight and we won't see a lot of blue sky the next several days. Warmer air returns tomorrow, getting back to near freezing Monday afternoon. We may see a quick burst of some snow showers around or just after the morning commute on Monday, but a better push of an icy mix of precipitation arrives late Monday evening and overnight into Tuesday morning. The chance of freezing rain, sleet, and snow are all possible Monday night into Tuesday...impacting our Tuesday morning commute. Any icing is expected to be under a tenth of an inch, mainly from Grand Rapids southward. North of Grand Rapids, we expect a burst of some heavy, wet snow with accumulations on the order of 2" to 4", perhaps some higher amounts, Monday through Tuesday afternoon. We will have to watch for any possible flooding concerns as snow is expected to melt quickly and possible ice jams along area rivers. Stay alert with FOX 17 News.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows around 13. Winds south at 10 to 15 mph.
MONDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of some snow around or just after the morning commute. Minor accumulations (if any), before most of the day stays dry. Another burst of precipitation in the form of an icy mix of freezing rain, sleet, and snow occur Monday evening into the overnight hours. Highs in the lower 30s. Winds south-southwest at 10 to 20 mph. Gusts to 30 mph.
TUESDAY: Cloudy with a mix of rain and snow. It may stay all snow north of Grand Rapids where some higher accumulations are possible. Early indications are 2" to 4" in these areas, but it may be higher if no rain mixes in...potentially 3" to 6". Highs in the upper 30s.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy with the chance of light rain. Highs near 40 degrees.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy with the chance of showers. Highs around 40 degrees.
