WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Terri DeBoer: Hot and humid conditions continue in West Michigan, with the chance for a few showers and thunderstorms. Much of the day will be dry, though the showers and thunderstorms that develop will produce locally heavy downpours and some gusty winds. Widespread showers and storms are more likely tomorrow as a cold front moves through the area. At this point, severe weather is not likely. A much more comfortable air mass will settle into the area behind the front, with slightly cooler and noticeably less humid air arriving. The break from the heat and humidity will be short-lived; as highs rebound back into the upper 80s and low 90s by late week. Several counties across West Michigan are facing drought conditions, which will be worsening in the days ahead. The Perseid Meteors peak 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.
