WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Kara James: More "weather whiplash" is on the horizon this week, with roller coaster temperatures and several cold front systems bringing rain and the chance for some snow as well. Temperatures overnight won't be as chilly as last night, thanks to warmer wind from the south. The breezy south winds along with sunshine will help high temperatures soar into the 60s tomorrow and Wednesday. This comes ahead of the first system this week that will bring changing weather: a mid-week low pressure system and cold front. This system will bring increasing rain chances and potential for a few thunderstorms Wednesday evening, with rain changing to snow as colder air wraps in by midnight Thursday. Thursday will be much colder and windy with wet snow likely, very similar to yesterday's weather. A few more weak systems between Saturday and Monday keeps the forecast active, with cooler air and a mix of rain and snow likely. Stay tuned to FOX 17 for latest forecast updates.
