WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Reece Cole: We're amid an 9-day streak of below freezing high temperatures! WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES remain in effect for most of the area through 1 A.M. Saturday morning. Lakeshore communities remain under the advisory until 10 A.M. Saturday. We expect a widespread 1" to 3", but more on the order of 3" to 6" along/west of U.S. 131. This system is really a two-parter. First, the clipper system itself dropping in from Canada, but we may see some enhancement with a southwest wind in locations from Grand Haven, to Muskegon, to Fremont. Tonight as winds turn westerly, look for a transition to lake effect for locations along/west of U.S. 131. Another Canadian clipper system drops in on Sunday and Monday with another 2" to 4" possible. Reinforcing Arctic air and more accumulating lake effect snow is likely on Tuesday and Wednesday next week with highs only in the upper teens to lower 20s. If you are a winter weather lover, this cold pattern looks to be in place through at least the middle of January. Stay with FOX 17 for the latest forecast updates!
