WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from Weather Ready Meteorologist Colton Cichoracki: A calm and quiet night is ahead. In fact, clouds will move out and there will be some clearing late tonight into Friday morning. Temperatures will drop into the 50s. On Friday, we will start the day with some sunshine but clouds will come in during the afternoon and evening. Highs will be in the 70s. Late Friday night into Saturday, an area of low pressure will move through the Great Lakes region. This will bring some widespread rain early in the day Saturday. Some of our computer models are shifting the heaviest rain a bit south which would mean that the heaviest rain will fall towards the I-94 corridor. More showers are possible on Sunday as well. This weekend is trending much cooler with highs only in the 60s both days. More rain chances are in the forecast early next week, with temperatures staying cooler in the middle to upper 60s. Just in time for the start of Fall on Tuesday!
