MID-MICHIGAN — A chilly mostly clear start to your Thursday as we will push to plenty of sunshine later on with some high-level clouds passing through. More widespread cloud cover is expected on Friday due to an approaching cold front. As the cold front moves closer to West Michigan, it will stall out near Lake Michigan. A few showers are possible northwest of Grand Rapids, however most of the region will stay dry and cloudy. The better opportunity for widespread rain showers will be on Saturday as the cold front slides across the state. Showers are expected to be gone by Sunday with sunshine returning. As the cold front passes, the winds will pick up as well! Plan on a windy Saturday and Sunday with wind gusts potentially up to 50 mph. Sunshine and highs in the lower to middle 60s are in store for next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. If you like the heat, you'll love the extended outlook!
