Travel will become very difficult to impossible over much of the U.P and should be restricted to emergency travel for areas expecting blizzard conditions. Here is the general progression of anticipated conditions this week in Upper Michigan.

Rain finishes changing to snow in the east this evening and as the low pressure lifts out of the area, lake effect snow kicks in. Heavy snowfall in the north to northwest wind snowbands as well as gusty winds in excess of 35-45 mph can cause low visibility, snowdrifts, and some power outages. Travel will be difficult to impossible at times!
