WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Kara James: It will be partly cloudy and slightly cooler overnight, with a few patches of fog forming after midnight. A big pattern shift arrives tomorrow: a large high pressure nudging in from the Plains will bring dry, sunny and very warm weather to West Michigan for the next week to 10 days. The first weekend of Fall will feature more of a "late Summer" air mass, and there is potential for some highs in the 80s Saturday through Tuesday. Average highs this time of year are in the upper 60s to low 70s, so this is very warm compared to where we should be. Mid-week next week temperatures could cool down a few degrees, but are likely to remain above average through the first week of October. The dry weather is nice for outdoor activities, but will worsen drought conditions. Make sure to stay with the FOX 17 Weather Ready Team for your latest forecast updates.
