GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — From Kent County to Kalamazoo, authorities across West Michigan are getting ready for the heat wave expected to hit this week.
Storm Team 8 says the stretch of 90-degree temperatures could last a week. Sticky dew points mean highs will likely feel hotter than the actual temperature.
Kent County Emergency Management says cooling centers will be open in the daytime when temperatures are peaking.
