The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Kara James: A warm-up is coming to West Michigan but our weather pattern will also get more active as the week goes on. Clouds return tonight as temperatures drop into the 20s, which will most likely obscure the lunar eclipse early Tuesday morning. Tomorrow will be mostly cloudy. A few pockets of drizzle (could be freezing) are possible in the morning but no all day rain is expected. Highs Tuesday are in the middle 40s. As temperatures warm up this week, we will see some rain move in. Rain looks most likely on Thursday and then again later Friday into Saturday. Temperatures this week are expected to soar into the 50s to near 60 by the end of the week. Normal highs have us in the upper 30s to near 40. Don't forget to wake up early on Tuesday, March 3 between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m. to see the total lunar eclipse (weather permitting). We may see a "blood red" moon, but mostly cloudy conditions may make it difficult or impossible to see. Get more here.
