WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Reece Cole: A few pop-up sprinkles are possible east of U.S. 131 this evening, but any rain will be exceptionally limited. You can plan on partly cloudy skies tonight with overnight low temperatures in the lower 60s. Mostly sunny skies are on tap for Saturday, with high temperatures spiking to the upper 80s. A few locations will be flirting with 90 degrees. A cold front is expected to pass on Sunday, firing up the opportunity for much-needed widespread rain. A few thunderstorms are possible on Sunday, with scattered rain showers on Monday and Tuesday. Forecast models are indicating between .50" to 1.0" of rain accumulation from Sunday through Tuesday.
