Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southwest Lower Michigan
National Weather Service Grand Rapids MI
355 AM EDT Tue Mar 11 2025

.DISCUSSION...

A cold front will move through this morning bringing with it breezy
northerly winds with gusts up to 30 mph possible during the morning
and early afternoon. Minimum relative humidity values are expected to
be in the 30s, but there is a slight chance that areas along the I-96
corridor could drop into the upper 20s.

Minimum relative humidity values Wednesday afternoon are expected to
be in the 30s with areas along and north of US-10 in the upper 20s.
There is a chance that values could drop into the 20s across much of
the area if we are able to mix down more of the drier air aloft.

The remainder of the week dew points rise with minimum relative
humidity values in the 50s and 60s. Rain is expected late Friday
night into Saturday with lingering rain showers potentially
transitioning to snow during the day Sunday.
