West Michigan Weather spends a lot of time making these School Closing Outlooks. It is our goal to make all of our pertinent forecasts available to everyone. However, because this is a “Day 2 Outlook” or a "Day 3 Outlook," and not a "Day 1 Outlook," and we consider this a premium benefit for those who do support us, we do ask that you help support us by donating to our organization if you are able!
Those donations go directly back into our operations here and help pay for fuel for storm chases, weather software, and the many premium plans we pay for to help get the latest and most accurate information out to all of you!
Plans start as low as $0.99/month! (Just 3 cents per day!) If you can’t support us by donating, no worries!
An updated version of this Outlook will be available in the Day 1 School Closing Outlook, which will be available to everyone tomorrow evening!
