The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Colton Cichoracki: A cold front will bring some scattered showers and storms overnight, especially along and north of I-96. At this time, we are not expecting severe weather, but a few storms could be gusty at times with heavy rain. We will see a few more scattered storms on Thursday but no washout is expected. A storm or two is possible Friday, but the forecast is trending dryer than it looked previously. This weekend will be mainly dry as temperatures warm back into the upper 80s and low 90s. Next week will be HOT as another big ridge of high pressure builds and creates our second heat wave of the season. Expect highs at 90 or better for most of next week. Dew points (a measure of moisture in the air) will not be a bad or high as they were last week, so feels like temperatures will not be quite as high.
TONIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy. Chance of a shower/storm, especially from Grand Rapids northward. Lows in the upper 60s. Winds light and variable.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny and more humid with scattered showers/storms. Highs in the low/mid 80s. Winds southwest/west at 5 to 15 mph.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy to partly sunny with a chance of showers/storms. Highs in the mid 80s.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy with highs in the upper 80s.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny and warm. Highs in the upper 80s to near 90.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy and hot with highs in the lower 90s.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy and hot with highs in the lower 90s.
WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy and hot with highs around 90.
