Snow moves out of Metro Detroit Thursday, but another round is expected this weekend

As snow moved out of Metro Detroit overnight Wednesday into Thursday, we begin to prepare for another round of snow this weekend.

Winter Weather Advisories and Winter Storm Warnings across Metro Detroit were canceled at 4:30 a.m. Thursday morning because the accumulations of snow moved out of Southeast Michigan.

There could be a few scattered lake-effect snow showers on Thursday. Otherwise, it will be mostly cloudy.

Highs will be around 30 degrees, and lows Thursday night will be around 10 degrees.

Looking ahead

Another round of snow is heading toward Southeast Michigan this weekend, and while it’s too early to give specifics, this appears to be an impactful winter storm.

While it’s possible this second storm will bring a similar amount of snow as the first, it will be spread out over the course of two days, making the accumulation less concentrated.

As of now, it appears snow showers will move in overnight Friday into Saturday and continue into Saturday afternoon.

When it gets closer to midnight Saturday into Sunday, there might be a wintry mix, especially in the southern parts of the area.

Precipitation will be back to snow on Sunday, and the heaviest snowfall of this storm will be on Sunday morning. The bulk of the snow from this storm is through Sunday.
