WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Kara James: Much cooler air is flowing into the Great Lakes for the next several days. A "fall preview" week is ahead, with highs in the upper 60s to mid 70s. Average highs this time of year are near 80 degrees. Isolated to scattered lake effect / lake enhanced rain showers are possible tonight through Tuesday, on and off. The best chance for rain is from the lakeshore to the 131 corridor. We may even see some waterspouts on Lake Michigan with the colder air coming across the relatively warmer waters of the lake. A BEACH HAZARDS STATEMENT and SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY continue along the lakeshore through Monday evening. Temperatures slowly moderate through late week, with highs back in the mid/upper 70s as we head into the Labor Day Holiday Weekend.
