More weather info on the way as our first winter storm event unfolds.
Right now, areas north of M-46 have already seen anywhere from 2 to 4 inches of snow. Mount Pleasant is reporting 2", Harrison is reporting 3". Same thing for areas closer to Lake Michigan. Some of this has changed back into rain for the moment. Areas south of M-46 are in an all rain environment. The western part of the blog area is experiencing the heaviest precipitation right now, in the counties of Branch, Calhoun, Eaton and Clinton. Have a look at this current NEXRAD composite in Winter Mode to see what's going on:
Winds will pick up here as the day progresses, we will soon see sustained winds 10-20 MPH with higher gusts. Here's my forecast for today:
The bulk of the snow will be Thursday Night and into Friday, here's the forecast for Friday...
I fully expect northern lower Michigan and places near the lakeshore to have a solid 6" or better by this time tomorrow. The blog should stay at or below three inches, as stated in prior forecasts. More info later today, I hope you have a great Thursday! Blessings.
