"Chilly Weekend Forecast: Lake-Effect Snow, Gusty Winds, and Cooler Temperatures Ahead"

Cold air moving into Michigan will bring lake-effect snow showers from Sunday through Tuesday, with accumulations expected in the northern U.P., northwest Lower Michigan, southwest Lower Michigan, and the Thumb. The snowfall forecast through Tuesday evening includes up to 8 inches in the U.P., 2-4 inches in northwest Lower Michigan, and 1-2 inches in the Thumb and northeast Detroit area. The lighter accumulations will be temporary due to the warm ground, with melting expected once the snow stops.
