The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: The best chance of rain today will be for areas along/east of U.S. 131. The steadiest rain will likely be across Montcalm, Ionia, Eaton, Calhoun Counties. The upper level low pressure system controlling our weather the past few days begins to move off to the east later today, allowing for dry air to return to the Great Lakes later today and tomorrow. More sunshine returns by mid-week, with Wednesday's highs climbing back into the low 70s. The second half of the week looks very nice, with lots of sunshine and highs in the 60s and 70s!
