...Bursts of Snow this Evening...
Periodic bursts of snowfall this evening will lead to drops in
visibility and roads becoming snow covered and slick. This will
primarily impact areas close to and west of Interstate 75 across
northern lower Michigan. Snow will taper through the night across
interior northern lower Michigan, becoming more focused on areas
near and south of Grand Traverse Bay after 11 PM. Snow showers in
the Grand Traverse Bay area will carry into Tuesday.
While most locations will see less than an inch of snow, some
areas across Charlevoix, Antrim, Otsego, Crawford, and Kalkaska
counties may see as much as an inch to 1.5 inches of snowfall by
Tuesday morning. For those near Grand Traverse Bay, locally
higher amounts approaching 4 inches are possible by Tuesday
afternoon.
If you must travel this evening into tonight, be cognizant of
weather conditions, remember to increase following distance, and
use low beams during periods of reduced visibility.
