WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Haleigh Vaughn: Cloud cover gradually increases tonight in West Michigan, along with overnight lows in the 60s. You might notice a haziness in the sky during the daytime hours on Friday due to west coast wildfire smoke moving in from strong winds higher up in the atmosphere. Warmer air settles in for Friday and Saturday, along with a mix of sun and clouds. Our next system moves into the region overnight Saturday, eventually departing by early Monday. Most of the rain showers will be hit-or-miss, but the ones that do fall will count as our sixth weekend in a row with precipitation! The first day of fall is this upcoming Thursday, September 22nd at 9:03 P.M.. We call it the autumnal equinox! Each and every day leading up to the first official day of fall is likely to be warmer-than-average. Stay up to date with the latest forecast by downloading our FOX 17 Weather App!
