WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Kara James: A Canadian clipper system coming in overnight and early Wednesday brings back the chance for light rain and snow, although accumulations will be minor, at less than half an inch of snow. The potential for more widespread snow showers arrives Thursday P.M. and night a stronger clipper system arrives. This one may drop a quick 1" to 3", with the heaviest occurring north of Grand Rapids. Friday through the weekend will be mainly dry, with lake effect snow possible Saturday morning, before a wind shift looks to bring sunshine across the area to end the weekend. Afternoon highs will only be in the 20s with the dry air, with lows in the teens! We are watching for a big warm up leading into Christmas, as mostly rain is in the forecast Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with 50s possible the following weekend!
