WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Haleigh Vaughn: A low pressure system is rotating over the state and will provide on-and-off scattered light rain showers and drizzle through tonight. We take a break from any precipitation during the daytime hours on Wednesday with mostly cloudy skies. By Wednesday night, we are tracking another system that could bring a wintry mix of rain and snow. A messy mix of rain, some freezing rain, and snow are possible during the daytime hours of Thursday, especially along/north of I-96. Patchy freezing rain could produce slick travel conditions early Thursday morning, so take your time during commutes. We may see a WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY issued for these areas from the National Weather Service, so stay up on later forecasts. Cooler air sweeps in Thursday night and Friday, transitioning all precipitation over to snow showers. Some snow accumulation is possible on Friday, but as of now only an inch or two are likely on grassy areas and vegetation. Cloud cover hangs around the region for Saturday with high temperatures in the lower 30s. Stay tuned with the FOX 17 Weather Team for updates.
