The forecast from FOX 17 Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: Reports came in of over 11" of snow in Oceana county with this last winter event. The Grand Rapids area recorded widespread 5-6", with locally higher amounts. Temperatures only in the 20s stick around today, but expect sunshine to develop (after some morning cloud cover) during the day, making it feel much nicer than Thursday. This cold blast won't last long, as high temperatures climb back into the mid/upper 30s Saturday, and lower 40s on Sunday. We could reach 50 degrees Monday as rain chances are with us Saturday night through Monday. In fact, we have a slight concern for the possibility of some initial icing Saturday night as the precipitation may start as freezing rain. We do expect a changeover Saturday night into Sunday morning as mainly rain, but the beginning or onset may start at freezing rain with some icing possible.
