Weather Story

Wintry Day Ahead

Cold Tuesday Then Warming

6-10 Day Outlook

A cold, wintry day is expected today, as another cold front moves across the region. Expect winds to increase and temps to fall during the afternoon and evening hours. Wind chills by late evening will be in the single digits above zero. Additionally, snow showers will become likely from midday through the afternoon and evening. Accumulations of 1 to 2 inches will be possible, especially in northeast Lower Michigan (near Rogers City and Alpena), and in eastern Upper Michigan. Rapid drops in visibility are likely in falling snow and with gusty winds.

Tuesday will be cold but a relatively quiet day. Snow and rain are likely in eastern Upper Michigan Wednesday, with just a chance of precipitation further south. The best chance of precipitation this week looks to be Wednesday night, mostly in the form of rain. In fact, the main story of the week is probably the retreat of wintry temperatures after Tuesday, replaced by something that at least vaguely resembles spring at times.
