WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Kara James: Snow began earlier today with a quick moving clipper system. Additional snow will continue through mid-morning Friday, with totals generally 2-4". Isolated higher amounts are possible north and west of Grand Rapids. WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES have been posted for Oceana, Newaygo, Muskegon, and Mecosta counties through 10 A.M. Friday. Expect slick roads for the Friday morning commute. The snow will wind down mid-day Friday, leading to a quiet, dry, and cold weekend. We will watch for some light snow along the immediate lakeshore Saturday morning before a wind shift looks to bring sunshine inland! More Arctic air spilling in to the Great Lakes will make afternoon highs only in the 20s with the dry air and lows in the teens! We are watching for a warm up leading into Christmas and New Years, as mostly rain is in the forecast through Christmas and temperatures building into the 40s by the end of Christmas Week. Stay with FOX 17 for the latest forecast updates!
