WEST MICHIGAN — From Fox 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Kara James: A warming trend is ahead for West Michigan this week, with high temperatures at or above average! The snowpack will continue to melt overnight, and without much wind this could lead to areas of dense fog. With the warmth this week comes several chances for rain: tomorrow and again late Thursday into Friday. Tomorrow morning rain and a light wintry mix will start the day, especially north of Grand Rapids where there is a WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY for Oceana, Newaygo, Mecosta and Montcalm Counties until 1 p.m. Most stay warm enough for widespread rain. Rain totals will be around a quarter to third of an inch. Afternoon highs Tuesday will reach the upper 30s to near 40-degrees. Highs in the mid-40s are expected Thursday and Friday, the big surge of warm air coming with a low pressure system bringing our second chance of rain for the week. A return to colder air and chance for snow showers happens this weekend.
TONIGHT: Areas of fog developing. Lows in the low 30s. Winds: SE 5-10 mph
