Here's a look at the week ahead. 🌤 Sunny and comfortable conditions are expected into this new week, with a brief cooldown arriving Wednesday. We're tracking the potential for rain next weekend, but it's not a guarantee.

What a beautiful capture. Love seeing pictures like these. 📸 Andrea Martin in Riverside Park

I WANT TO GO TO BED

Had some fun playing a knock-off @PatMcAfeeShow on television this morning for our live newscast from Hudsonville

📺 LIVE FROM HUDSONVILLE I'm excited to be joining team Daybreak for a live broadcast from Hudsonville Friday morning ahead of the Eagles' big game against the Falcons of East Kentwood! We'll be live on WOOD from 5:00-7:00am. It's going to be a fun morning!

This morning's chill was a wake-up call for EVERYONE. 🥶 📸 Rob Miner in Grand Haven

First time since Sept. 23 we received measurable rain and it was a good soaker for most. Pretty much a dry forecast for the remainder of the week. Possibly a wetter pattern the following week. #wmiwx #miwx

The EF-5 drought is over. NWS Grand Forks revised its rating for June 20's Enderlin, ND tornado from a preliminary EF-3 to an EF-5. Full report:

Each fall, we seem to have a system that "switches" the pattern for good. Tonight's cold front appears to be that switch. This is just a model, so the numbers may be slightly off, but the trend remains: we're unlikely to see another stretch of 80s, at least through mid-October.

Here's a look at the week ahead. 🍁 An exceptionally warm start to the week will turn much cooler, thanks to a cold front that will bring the chance for at least a little rain Monday night into Tuesday morning.

I don’t see this as a dig as much as it is an ode to the television and radio broadcasts that allowed people to listen and become fans

NBC says its once-shuttered sports network (NBCSN) is coming back later this fall:

It's been warm and dry and NOT very stormy lately. Interesting stat from Blake Harms. #wmiwx #miwx

One of the craziest wrecks I’ve ever seen

West Michigan is entering a stunningly quiet stretch of weather for the foreseeable future. We'll have to watch the tropics, as some clouds and wind could be thrown our way, but that's likely our only weather of consequence through next week.

@wxblakeharms Gave new meaning to the "cascade area."

@wxblakeharms cascade (by watermark) got a wee bit of rain...

⛈️ Severe thunderstorm warning in effect for parts of Van Buren & Kalamazoo until 8:45pm

You ever read things that make you wonder where we went wrong? This is one of those things.

Here is a precipitation map from yesterday's rainfall. Mainly beneficial rains across the region with a strip of higher rainfall just north of Lansing through southern Clinton county.
