WEST MICHIGAN — The National Weather Service has issued WINTER STORM WARNINGS for counties along and west of U.S. 131. The warnings and advisories run through 1 A.M. tonight.
THURSDAY A.M.
Lake effect snow continues into Thursday morning. Strong northwest winds will drive snow further inland than usual bands. Expect poor travel conditions and various school closings.
Temperatures will be in the teens with feels like temperatures in the single digits as winds gust up to 45 mph. Decem'BRRRR' is earning its name this week.
More lake effect snow continues with the heaviest/steadiest along/west of U.S. 131. See additional amounts through today below. Blowing and drifting snow may impact totals, too
NOAA impact severity index is minor for most of the area. But locations south/west of Grand Rapids where locally 10" to 12" may fall has a moderate severity index due to heavier snow and gusty winds that will create white-out conditions longer in these areas. Our sliver of our northern counties are also under a moderate severity index. See image below.
