DETROIT – Here is the Metro Detroit weather forecast update for Dec. 27, 2021, afternoon and evening.
More snow later Tuesday
Recommended Videos
- Another system brings us some snow later Tuesday afternoon and evening.
- Some models have a wintry mix with this, but given the temperature profile, I think most, if not all, of what we get will be snow. Wintry mix chances look better further south.
- This snow will add up, with most of us getting around an inch. But some spots could be closer to 2 inches.
Chance for snow Thursday
- It’s a glancing blow, but a few snow showers look possible Thursday, mainly in the South Zone.
- A light accumulation is looking possible with this.
First storm of 2022
- Long-range models don’t have a great handle on this, but the consensus is that we’ll get something Saturday night into Sunday.
- Models have different solutions on the exact track, and as a result, have different precipitation types for us (snow/rain/mix).
- There’s some fine tuning to be done here, but plan on more impactful weather Saturday night into Sunday.
Latest first snowfall
- Wednesday (Dec. 29) is the anniversary of the latest first snowfall.
- We’ve obviously beaten that this year.
Latest sunrise
- Monday (Jan. 3) of next week is the latest sunrise that we see at Metro Airport.
- Sunrise is at 8:02 a.m. that day.
