WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Kara James: After a mild day with some sunshine, the mild temperatures continue tonight as a warm front lifts through West Michigan. The front will help squeeze out a few rain showers after midnight through mid-morning Monday as temperatures hover in the upper 30s and low 40s. Colder air will sweep in Tuesday behind a cold front, and then a bigger blast of cold air drops in from Canada mid-week. Temperatures Thursday and Friday will struggle to get to the 20s, with mornings in the teens (or colder). Scattered lake effect snow showers are likely through the middle to end of the week, though temperatures are going to jump back to near-40 for highs by the weekend. Longer range forecast models show we may spike back into the 40s by mid December again. At this point, chances for a "White Christmas" are not looking great.
