The National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has placed parts of West Michigan in a level two "Slight Risk" from after midnight through Tuesday morning.

Per the SPC, scattered supercellular thunderstorms with potential destructive wind gusts are expected to develop late Monday afternoon into the evening throughout parts of Minnesota and Wisconsin. The systems will be moving Eastward across Lake Michigan during the early morning hours Tuesday. Forecasts expect these systems to hit the west Michigan coast after 3 A.M. 

Areas under the level two classification are Fremont, Grand Rapids, Grant, Holland, Ludington, Muskegon, Newaygo, and western parts of White Cloud. Other surrounding areas such as Baldwin, Big Rapids, Greenville, Howard City, Manistee, Reed City, and Traverse City are listed in a level one "Marginal Risk," as the system is projected to weaken after inital landfall due to questionable instability.
