Today's Forecast: Cloudy, breezy, cold, snow showers
WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Chief Meteorologist Kevin Craig: Many communities will see snow showers continue into our work week. Some locations in West Michigan could pick up an additional 1" to 2" through Tuesday morning, with isolated spots picking up 3" to 4" in lake effect bands west of U.S. 131. These snow showers will ramp up this afternoon and evening as some upper level energy pivots through the Great Lakes. Winds today will be brisk from the west at 10 to 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph, producing wind chills in the teens. Wind chills will likely be in the single digits tonight! After the snow showers taper off Tuesday morning, temperatures will begin warming into the upper 30s and lower 40s the remainder of the week and into the weekend. We are tracking a couple of systems that may bring rain to snow mix both Friday and Sunday. Stay tuned to FOX 17 for your latest weather updates.
