The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: Very light showers will move through early this morning in some areas with amounts less than a tenth of an inch to just a trace. Better rain chances happen this weekend. Highs slip into the low to mid 60s for the rest of the week. "Average" highs are now in the lower 60s, so this is still a few degrees above average. Temperatures early Thursday morning may drop into the 30s in some inland areas, creating the best chance for areas of frost. Unfortunately, most of the Lower Peninsula remains in a moderate to severe drought. Widespread rain is in the forecast for Saturday, Saturday night, and into Sunday morning. A few thunderstorms are possible on Saturday as well. Totals will be about a half in in many spots. Stay with the FOX 17 Weather Ready Team for your latest forecast updates
