WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Haleigh Vaughn: Mostly clear to partly cloudy skies are in store tonight, with an overnight temperature near 40 degrees. Your Wednesday and Thursday will feature a mix of sun and clouds. Temperatures will be the warmest for the middle of the week, with daytime highs in the 60s on Wednesday and near 70 degrees on Thursday. A strong cold front arrives Friday and forces a pattern change with rain showers and sharply colder air. Behind the cold front brings high temperatures only in the 30s, which will be the coldest air of the season so far. Along with the cold comes the chance for snow in West Michigan! Precipitation transitions from rain to snow on Saturday, and remaining primarily snow from Saturday night through Monday. Minor snow accumulations will be possible along and west of U.S. 131, with a slushy mix expected on the roadways! Daytime high temperatures remain in the upper 30s for next Monday and Tuesday.
