The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Kara James: The potential for more widespread snow arrives tomorrow evening and night as a stronger Canadian clipper system moves into the region. This one will drop a quick 2" to 4", with the heaviest occurring north of Grand Rapids. Snow will wind down by mid-afternoon Friday. Friday night through the weekend will be mainly dry, with lake effect snow possible Saturday morning (near the immediate lakeshore), before a wind shift looks to bring sunshine across the area to end the weekend. It will be colder, though! 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 Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with temperatures into the 40s the following weekend! Stay with FOX 17 for the latest forecast updates!
