The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Reece Cole: We could use a soaking rainfall, as the past several weeks have featured mostly dry conditions. Grand Rapids has over a 3″ rainfall deficit since the start of May, and a precipitation deficit more than 5″ since January 1st. Today is also a CLEAN AIR ACTION DAY for high levels of ozone here at the surface. Try not to operate any gas powered equipment or top off the gas tank…as both contribute to ground level ozone and poor air quality here at the surface. Stay tuned to the FOX 17 Weather Ready Team for your latest forecast updates.
