Snow Potential

Weather Outlook

Colder temperatures will usher in the potential for lake effect precipitation late this week, especially later Thursday into Friday. Snow showers will be possible, mainly across portions of eastern upper and northwest lower (Grand Traverse Bay especially). Don't be surprised to see flakes at times elsewhere as well. Uncertainties revolve around how much snow actually falls/sticks, and how much rain mixes in. Nevertheless…stay tuned!

After a mostly dry night, temperatures will begin to drop on Wednesday with a chance for scattered rain showers. A stronger push of cold air sweeps into northern Michigan Thursday and Friday, limiting highs to the 30s and 40s and triggering lake effect rain and snow showers. Expect conditions to gradually dry out over the weekend.
