We got through our first Alberta Clipper Tuesday morning. Most areas saw about 0.5-1" of snow, leading to slippery driving conditions across Metro Detroit. The rest of Tuesday will be cloudy and breezy with temperatures holding in the low to mid 30s
Our next winter system is on the way. Snow moves in from the southwest after 9 p.m. and will be across the entire area by midnight. We'll see a few hours of light to moderate snowfall through about 3 a.m. After 3 a.m. temperatures will warm enough where snow will change to rain starting south and pushing north through 6 a.m. There is also the possibility for a bit for sleet and freezing rain during this transition, but ice accumulation should be less than 0.1". From 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. rain showers will continue in areas south of I-69, with snow continuing north. A cold front sweep through after 10 a.m. switching everyone back to snow. Snow showers slowly end in the afternoon. Snowfall totals will vary quite a bit through the morning and across the area.
Here's a look at forecasted snowfall totals:
Lake effect snow showers kick in Thursday. A few more snow chances continue into this weekend. Temperatures continue to be well below average with highs in the mid to upper 20s to end the workweek, and in the teens and low 20s this weekend.
