WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX17 Meteorologist Kara James: After we picked up about a quarter inch of rain on Monday, keep your umbrella handy for more rain through mid-week! Temperatures will hover near 50 degrees overnight before rising slightly into the early morning. This is as clouds and rain bring in a breezy southeast wind at 10 to 20 mph with 30 mph gusts. Waves of rain continue Tuesday morning and again in the evening, as temperatures climb to around 60. These showers are part of a stronger system which will bring extended chances for rain and even a few snowflakes mixing in, through the end of the work week. Highs in the 40s are expected starting Wednesday, with lows near freezing. The colder temperatures will likely support at least a period of rain mixed with wet, slushy snow Thursday. Thankfully, due to the warmth we've had and the nature of this system, accumulating snow will be hard to come by. Lake Effect moisture will be the main reason for precipitation Friday and Saturday, although staying mostly rain showers. Read more on this here. Stay tuned to FOX 17 for your latest weather updates.
