WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Gracyn Freund: Spotty to scattered showers and thunderstorms are likely this evening, overnight and early tomorrow as a cold front swings through. While storms should stay relatively weak, a few stronger storms are possible tonight from the lakeshore to US-131 where a Marginal Risk (Level 1/5) is in place. Gusty winds are the biggest threat with any stronger storms, though many will be just run of the mill storms. Temperatures will climb into the upper 70s on Saturday and it will feel a bit humid. Rain and storms should move out by the early afternoon and we'll break into some sunshine. There may be enough energy left over from this system that could produce a few isolated showers on Sunday, otherwise plan on a mostly sunny sky. It will be breezy and cooler behind this system on Sunday with highs in the mid 70s and lower humidity. Monday looks sunny, dry, and comfortable for back to school! Temperatures remain around average, if not a few degrees below, through next week with highs in the upper 70s to around 80. Our next rain chance will come late Tuesday into Wednesday.
