Two waves of snow will move through the Upper Midwest through Tuesday night. The first will be now into Tuesday morning, where widespread 1 to 3 inches of snow is expected, with more across the east. 1 inch per hour rates will be possible east of Seney and Manistique tonight. The second wave comes Tuesday night. There's still uncertainty surrounding its track, which is impacting potential snow amounts. Best bet for snow will be closer to the stateline though. After this system Wednesday, expect breezy winds and lake effect downwind of Lake Superior.
