LANSING, Mich. — Lake effect snow showers are expecting to bring accumulating snow to neighborhoods further to the west. Our neighborhoods could see some of these snow showers move in later this afternoon at around 4 PM and lasting through the evening hours. We are not expecting heavy accumulations in our neighborhoods. At the most, we are expecting around an inch of accumulations through Wednesday night. Some localized areas within the snow band could see a bit more. However, accumulating snow shouldn't bring too many hazards other than some possible slick spots on the roads.

We could still see some accumulating snow with this system to end our week. This system could still change as we head through the rest of the week and we will keep you updated.

Another round of snow arrives to end our weekend on Sunday and into Monday. This system looks to be more amplified as we are tracking it right now as a clipper system is looking to track right through Michigan. It is still too early to talk number and timing as the forecast could still change prior to.
