The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: Dry air is finally working into West Michigan following what was a very wet weekend. Most areas picked up a solid 1 to 2" of rain. This much needed rain will help chip away at the moderate to severe drought that has built into most of the Lower Peninsula. Sunshine returns today with highs around 60. More rain showers are possible after midnight tonight into Tuesday and Wednesday. Overall, a sharply cooler pattern sets up this week with highs mainly in the 50s. We will also feel breezy conditions on Tuesday and Wednesday and conditions will be somewhat blustery with the wet weather and cooler temperatures. Later this week, we'll have frost possibilities again in the morning hours, especially Friday and Saturday mornings. Stay with the FOX 17 Weather Ready Team for your latest forecast updates.
