WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Haleigh Vaughn: Clouds are on and off tonight, but we will remain dry as temps once again fall back into the mid to upper 20s. Our next weather system will move into Michigan from the south, bringing a chance for snow Tuesday and Wednesday. We expect accumulations to vary based on area. South of I-94 will have the least accumulation, with most locations under an inch. The bullseye is around I-96, where up to 3 inches of fresh snow by Wednesday afternoon is possible. However, the majority of West Michigan is likely to receive between 1 to 2 inches of snow. Even colder air dives in on Thursday, leading to daytime high temperatures on Friday and this weekend in the 20s. That may drive heavier lake effect snow between Thursday night, Friday, and Saturday with several inches of accumulation possible. Our forecast models are indicating our winds during this time frame may be west-northwesterly, which would drive the snow to the U.S. 131 corridor and perhaps even further east.
