WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Reece Cole: Sharply colder air is in sight for the weekend, with the chance for a few showers or a wintry mix later in the day Saturday. Saturday's highs will only reach the mid-40s, with even colder air in sight for Sunday and Monday. This sharply colder air mass for Sunday comes with the potential for slushy snowflakes to mix in with rain. The "average" first snow in Grand Rapids is November 8, so this would be right on schedule. Accumulations may be slushy, but are possible! What we actually measure may be different than what falls! Stay with the FOX 17 Weather Ready Team for your latest forecast updates.
