WEST MICHIGAN — WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Anthony Domol: Dry, warm and humid this evening with temps holding in the 80s through about sunset. Overnight the risk for severe weather still looks to be substantial as a cluster of thunderstorms races in from the northwest. The time frame of greatest concern will be between 3 a.m. and 7 a.m. with gusty winds being the biggest threat. Now is the time to make sure you have a severe weather plan in place.
