WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Haleigh Vaughn: Dry conditions continue tonight with clear skies. Cold temperatures will kick in dropping overnight lows into the upper 20s and lower 30s. A FREEZE WARNING is in effect overnight and expires at 9 A.M. Thursday morning. Bring in those vulnerable plants. Frost could form on cold surfaces. Temperatures will be slightly warmer tomorrow. Mostly sunny skies on tap for Thursday with highs breaking the 60s. The next chance for rain will be on Friday! Showers will arrive from the south on Friday, with the majority of rain south and east of Grand Rapids. Widespread rain takes aim on West Michigan for Saturday and Sunday as an upper level low and associated trough sink into the Great Lakes and control our weather for at least a few days. We expect mainly cloudy skies, showery conditions, and below normal temperatures as a result. Between the two weekend days, Sunday will feature the most rainfall. Reinforcing colder air dives in for Monday and Tuesday of next week bringing additional chances for rain and snow showers. Stay tuned to FOX 17 for your latest weather updates.
