WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Haleigh Vaughn: Clouds continue to build overnight as our next widespread system moves into West Michigan. Friday's system will bring primarily light snow showers, however moments of light rain can't be ruled out. Accumulating snow is likely through the day on Friday, with 1" to 2" likely by Friday night. Isolated higher amounts around 3" are possible! While accumulations will be limited, slick travel is possible with low visibility at times. Precipitation moves out late Friday night, with mainly cloudy skies in store for Saturday. Another mix of rain and snow develops overnight Saturday, lasting through early Sunday morning. High temperatures for this weekend will be in the upper 30s. The next larger system on tap for the region will be on Wednesday and Thursday of next week, which is anticipated to bring widespread rain showers transitioning over to snow and strong wind gusts. The average high temperature for this time of year is between 38 to 36 degrees. The Climate Prediction Center suggests that temperatures are likely to be within that zone through mid-December.
