The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Reece Cole: A major winter storm has exited the region, but its path has begun dragging down cooler air and firing up lake effect snow to end the weekend and start the work week. We have seen snowfall reports in West Michigan over 10 inches for some, others near I-94 seeing around 6" of new snow. More snow is on the way, though! A WINTER STORM WARNING remains in effect for Muskegon, Ottawa, Kent, Ionia, Allegan, Barry, Van Buren, Kalamazoo, Berrien, Cass, and St. Joseph counties. A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY has been issued for Oceana, Newaygo, Montcalm, Eaton, Calhoun, and Branch counties. Click here for information on your county. An additional 4" to 8" of snow will be likely through Sunday (especially those under a Winter Storm Warning) with isolated higher amounts possible. High temperatures Sunday will be in the upper teens, but even colder afternoon highs Monday through Wednesday. Make sure to stay updated on later forecasts for all snow chances later in the week.

TONIGHT: Cloudy, windy, with lake effect. Another 2" to 6" likely, and localized heavier amounts along the I-96 corridor. Lows in the teens. Winds west at 10 to 20 mph with gusts to 35 mph.
