WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Reece Cole: Cool air sticks around all week, but thankfully catching a lull in the showers for most of the first half of the week. If the wind calms fast enough, we could be watching out for some patchy frost as temperatures look to fall into the 30s for inland areas. High temperatures are expected to only reach the lower 50s through Tuesday. Winds will still be gusty from the northwest Monday, persistent winds from 10 to 20 mph with individual gusts that could reach 30 miles an hour in the afternoon and evening. This will create feels-like temperatures in the 40s. Sharply colder air aloft coming across the relatively warmer waters of Lake Michigan (in the mid/upper 60s) will fuel the precipitation on Tuesday as the low pressure to our north continues to propagate around the region. Waterspouts are also possible on Lake Michigan again Monday. Waves heights may reach up to 7 feet with the strong winds. Another system is set to move into West Michigan toward the tail-end of the week, bringing chances of showers Thursday through Saturday. Stay tuned to FOX 17 for your latest weather updates.
