MID-MICHIGAN — An icy mix of freezing rain, sleet, and snow continues to fall over West Michigan. Strong wind gusts will also play a role in this system today. Several alerts have been posted for West Michigan. Click HERE for more information. Travel conditions will be the worst early this morning. Give yourself plenty of extra time for the morning commute. Drier air filters in for the second half of today, but a few wintry mix showers will still be possible. Temperatures briefly push towards 40 degrees this afternoon, which could create a small window of melting on today. Temperatures drop leading into Friday, as we expect a flash freeze from any previous melting on Thursday. Lake effect snow chances or flurries are possible Friday with high temperatures only in the 20s. Light snow also continues early Saturday; otherwise the weekend will be quiet and dry. Another big storm system may press into the region on Monday, but it looks warm enough for mainly all rain. Make sure to stay up on later forecasts!
