Another brush with snow before tapering Wednesday

NWS alerts in effect HERE .

A sweeping clipper system from Manitoba brushes another round of snow across Upper Michigan Tuesday evening through early Wednesday. The brushes do not stop there, as another system from Manitoba brings light to moderate snow mainly over the northern U.P. Thursday, followed by lake effect snow in the northwest wind belts Friday before snow chances gradually dwindle towards Saturday.

A Central Plains-based system spreads mixed rain and snow across Upper Michigan Sunday - some wet, slushy, icy spots possible towards next Monday.

Temperatures trend seasonal overall through the weekend, until a southwesterly jet drives daytime temps above freezing Monday and Tuesday.
