The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: High pressure with lead into another nice, mild, pleasant Fall outdoor day today with highs approaching 70. Highs slip into the 60s for the rest of the week. "Average" highs are now in the lower 60s, so temperatures will likely be 5 to 10 degrees above average through this week and into the weekend. Temperatures early Thursday morning may drop into the 30s in some inland areas, creating the best chance for areas of frost. Widespread frost is not a concern for much of this week, as morning temperatures (other than Thursday morning) will hold in the 40s to near 50. Unfortunately, most of the Lower Peninsula remains in a moderate to severe drought. We do have rain chances coming up this week: very light showers tonight into Wednesday morning, and then more widespread rain for Friday and the weekend.
