Today's Weather Forecast
Our winds today will bend a little bit back to the west-northwest touching off more lake-effect snow showers, mainly southwest of the Lansing area. Some minor accumulation will be possible again in possibly Branch and SW Calhoun Counties, where northeast of Calhoun and Jackson Counties, things will be just hit-or-miss, or just a few flurries. High temperatures today will only be in the low 30s with wind chills still mostly in the teens and 20s with nearly the same conditions on Tuesday.
