WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Kara James: Another round of snow is ahead tomorrow evening into early Tuesday as we get brushed by an Arctic cold front. It will not be to the magnitude of the cold air we experienced this past week! The bigger issue Monday will be reduced visibility and dangerous driving conditions as winds gust up to 40 mph while snow is falling. A WIND ADVISORY is in place from 10 a.m. through 8 p.m. to account for the strong winds and blowing snow. Additional quick moving systems Tuesday evening and Wednesday bring chances for light snow, but accumulations won't be more than 2-3" combined as most of the energy and cold air stay to our north. This week's pattern features most days above freezing with sunshine toward the later part of the work week. No major snow accumulations are expected through the end of January! By next weekend, another warmer system brings the chance of freezing rain, snow, and rain. This system will need to be watched carefully. Thus far in Grand Rapids this season, we've tallied 51.5" of snow. Normal totals for the entire season are around 77", so we are well on pace into the end of January. Stay with FOX 17 for the latest forecast updates!
