WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Haleigh Vaughn: A stray shower is possible in West Michigan tonight, primarily along and north of I-96. Clouds will decrease before daybreak, along with temperatures dipping to the lower 50s. Friday starts off with a mix of sun and clouds, with cloud cover increasing through the day with chances of a few showers in the evening. Friday's high temperature will be 60 degrees. Rain will become scattered late Friday evening and overnight, so have your rain gear handy for Friday night football! Temperatures take a nosedive this weekend into the 50s and winds will remain brisk creating blustery conditions. It will actually be cold enough for lake effect and lake enhanced rain showers during this time frame. Sharply colder air aloft coming across the relatively warmer waters of Lake Michigan (in the mid/upper 60s) will fuel the precipitation. Cooler air is likely to linger into early next week. Stay tuned to FOX 17 for your latest weather updates.
