Tuesday will be tranquil as well, but low pressure will be quick to develop northwest of Lake Superior. This low will dive quickly to the southeast Tuesday night, bringing a shot of Arctic air to West Michigan and some minor lake effect snow accumulations along/west of U.S. 131. An icy morning commute is possible Wednesday as temperatures fall into the teens.
