WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Gracyn Freund: Happy 4th! Other than a few lingering showers this morning along with some thicker clouds, much of today will be dry under a partly cloudy sky. It will still be pretty warm and humid with highs in the 80s, and peak heat indices in the lower 90s, which is definitely an improvement from the last few days! The chance for some pop up showers and storms will increase this evening into tonight, so keep an eye on the radar if you have any outdoor plans or will be attending any firework shows. Sunday will be mostly cloudy which will hold temperatures back to the lower 80s but it will still be very humid. Another round of scattered showers and storms will be possible in the afternoon and evening, mainly south of I-96. Dry, slightly cooler, and less humid conditions return heading into next week.
