Lake Effect Snow Continues Tonight

Cold Wind Chills Tonight

Forecast through Friday

Snowiest November Since 2014

Lake effect snow bands increase in intensity tonight in the eastern UP. 3 to 7 inches of additional snowfall is expected in the east with locally higher amounts where bands persist. Snowfall rates of 0.5–1”/hr expected in the heaviest bands could lead to difficult travel conditions.

The coldest wind chills of the season so far are expected tonight into Thursday morning across the UP, in the negative single digits and teens.

Lake effect snow showers persist across the NW wind snowbelts behind a cold front today while winds turn gusty. Snow and blowing snow could make travel difficult at times over the eastern U.P today and tonight, especially near Lake Superior. Temperatures peak in the teens to low 20s today before falling back into the single digits above and below zero tonight. Snow chances remain in the forecast the rest of the week with lingering lake effect and another frontal system moving through.

Snowvember ended with a bang as a strong storm brought heavy snow to the Upper Great Lakes through Thanksgiving weekend.

We have an event summary of the Thanksgiving snowstorm coming soon!
