WEST MICHIGAN â The forecast from FOX 17 Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: Today starts dry with some morning sunshine, but as a cold front drops south across the state, a few late day showers or even a storm cannot be ruled out. With the front stalling out across our area on Monday, additionally spotty storms are possible. Perhaps the best chance for rain will come Wednesday as the cold front finally pushes through the area. Up until that point, temps will be above average for this time of the year, reaching the 70s and 80s each day. It does look cooler to finish the work week and we may only reach the mid/upper 60s for the start of the long, holiday Memorial Day weekend. Steadier, widespread rain is also possible Thursday night into Friday.

WEST MICHIGAN â The forecast from FOX 17 Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: After a lingering early morning shower/sprinkles, look for skies to return to mostly sunny/partly cloudy. Temperatures will rebound quickly reaching highs in the middle 80s. Sunday starts dry, but as a front drops south across the state, a few late day showers or even a storm cannot be ruled out. Monday may provide a slightly better opportunity for scattered showers with temps a few degrees cooler, in the 70s. With parts of West Michigan now in a Moderate to Severe drought, we really do need a widespread rain across the region. While next week offers multiple chances for some showers and thunderstorms, a consistent, steady rain is unlikely for most locations.

WEST MICHIGAN â The forecast from FOX 17 Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: Today through Saturday we ll be on the northwestern periphery of an area of upper level high pressure. That means while the rain chances aren t zero, they re quite low. Temperatures will be heating up substantially. Expect highs in the mid 80s for the end of the week and rising humidity levels (dew points may get into the 60 - 63 degree range). While it won t be a mid-summer Michigan kind of humid, it will be noticeable since it s been cool and dry this past month. Another chance for at least scattered showers and thunderstorms will arrive late in the weekend and early next week as the frontal system and associated cold front sag into the Great Lakes. While most of West Michigan could really use a steady rainfall to mitigate the developing drought - our forecast models are not showing that typ
