4Warn Weather – Where you live and where you are headed are the two key questions regarding what kind of drive you will have on Thursday morning.
Here’s a breakdown:
- 6 a.m. - 8 a.m. Snow arrives from the West and overspreads most of SE Lower Michigan, with the heaviest snow in Northern Livingston, Oakland, and Macomb counties up into the thumb.
- 8 a.m.- 10 a.m. Temperatures warm, and we start to see a mix of snow, sleet, and freezing rain, especially south of I-696.
- 10 a.m. - 1 p.m. Snow continues north of M-59, and rain begins to make its way from the Ohio border up to the northern parts of Wayne County.
- 1 p.m.-3 p.m. rain over most of the area, moving out by the evening commute.
Snow rates will be high in this short-duration event, so accumulation looks likely north of I-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 and will bring you updates.
