The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Kara James: We will get a brief cooldown tomorrow and Thursday as cool air rides around the edge of a Canadian high pressure, but temperatures will still remain above average. The 80s return Friday through the weekend as a huge area of high pressure returns to the region, promoting sunny, warm and dry weather. For comparison: "average" this time of year are highs in the upper 60s and lows in the upper 40s. Unfortunately, even though the dry & warm weather is nice for outdoor activities, the drought conditions will continue to worsen across West Michigan this week. Slight chances for showers are back in the forecast early next week, but amounts look very light. The tropics are somewhat active off the Southeast coast of the United States with Tropical Storm Imelda and Hurricane Humberto. At this point, both storms are moving away from the United States, out to sea. Make sure to stay with the FOX 17 Weather Ready Team for your latest forecast updates.
