WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Kara James: Another heat wave is building across West Michigan as we close out the final week of July. High temperatures will climb into the low 90s again tomorrow and Tuesday, with feels like temperatures approaching 100 both days. There is a HEAT ADVISORY from 1 - 9 p.m. Monday for Berrien, Cass, St. Joseph and Branch counties. Stay cool and hydrated! Rain chances will be low overall, but a few shower and thunderstorms are possible Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Most areas will miss out on the much-needed rainfall. Heat relief finally comes Wednesday with a stronger cold front, but the front lacks significant moisture for rain. We will finally be able to give the air conditioners a break for the second half of the week, with much lower humidity, highs slipping into the upper 70s and low 80s, and overnight lows in the comfortable 50s and 60s. We may be able to start seeing the Perseid Meteors in the coming days, but they don't peak until August 12/13. This is an annual event and stems from debris from the tail of the comet Swift Tuttle. Stay tuned to the FOX 17 Weather Ready Team for your latest forecast updates.
