Winter Weather Advisory
Could someone get a foot of new snow by Wednesday PM?
A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect through Wednesday morning for the lakeshore counties and until 7 pm this evening the next set of counties inland from the lake (Lake, Newaygo, Kent, Barry, Kalamazoo and Cass) plus Ionia, Eaton, Ingham, Calhoun and Jackson Counties.
The counties in purple on the map above are under the Advisory. All of Lower Michigan is under a Cold Weather Advisory for wind chill temperatures of 10-20 below zero.
Up north Advisories continue for the counties that border Lake Michigan plus the Cheboygan and Gaylord areas and for the counties along the Lake Superior shoreline between S. Ste. Marie and Marquette.
