The forecast from FOX 17 Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: Our next system moving in today will bring mainly rain showers, with the potential of light ice or an icy mix along/north of I-96 this morning, but most of the precipitation is expected to be rain with maybe some snow flakes mixing in this afternoon. There is another chance for more rain/snow late Saturday night into Sunday. We will be tracking a system by mid-week next week for the potential of freezing rain changing to all rain in the Wednesday Thursday time frame. Make sure to stay up on later forecasts! So far in Grand Rapids this season, we've tallied 52" of snow. Normal totals for the entire season are around 77", so we are well on pace into the end of January. Overall, we will be trending the next several days into milder temperatures (at/above freezing) and less chances for accumulating snow, but perhaps better chances for freezing rain or ice (or a rain/snow mix) from time to time. Stay with FOX 17 for the latest forecast updates!
