It's A Bit Cool, And Maybe Some Stuff Later?

A Bit of a Chill in the Air, Folks
East Grand Rapids woke up to a crisp morning today, with the temperature currently sitting at 39 degrees. It’s… well, it’s definitely a coat-wearing kind of day. I, for one, am glad I remembered mine!
The sun is out, which is nice, and the wind is pretty gentle, just a light breeze from the west at about 5 miles per hour. Air quality seems good, thankfully. It’s actually a pretty decent day, if you don't mind a little chill.
But, uh, things might be changing. The forecast says there's a 40 percent chance of showers tonight, mainly after 1 AM. So, maybe don't do laundry and hang it outside? Just a thought. Temperatures are expected to dip down to around 33 degrees overnight. Brrr.
And tomorrow… well, tomorrow sounds a little messy. There’s a chance of rain showers before 5 PM, and then possibly snow showers. Snow in April! It's supposed to get up to near 45 degrees, though, so hopefully it won't stick around too long. The wind is also expected to pick up, with gusts potentially reaching 25 miles per hour.
So, yeah. Be prepared for anything tomorrow, I guess? Maybe have an umbrella and a light jacket handy. And, you know, just be careful out there. I think I’ll be staying inside with a warm drink, personally. It's probably the safest bet.
