4Warn Weather – Another messy morning commute on tap for parts of Southeast Lower Michigan, but not everyone will be affected.
The National Weather Service has just issued a Winter Weather Advisory for Livingston, Oakland, Macomb, St. Clair, and areas north of I-69 from 4am to 1pm Thursday.
Arrival of snow will be from the west around 7am. As the morning continues on and temperatures warm, we’ll see this snow transition to rain or freezing rain by late morning.
The freezing rain line looks likely to set up right around I-94. Rain to the south. By just after lunch, just about everyone transitions over to rain, then the precipitation ends by about 3pm.
Snow rates will be high in this short duration event, so accumulation looks likely north of 94, with the highest amounts north. Here’s a breakdown.
- Around I-94: Trace to ½”
- I-94 to I-96: ½” to 2″
- I-96 to I-69: 2″-4″, maybe a touch more north.
The 4 Warn Weather Team continues to track the rain/snow line -- track updates in the 4Warn Weather app, on Local 4 and ClickOnDetroit.
