Intense NW flow lake effect snow bands will continue through the day today with 30 to 40 mph wind gusts contributing to blowing snow and whiteout conditions at times. These intense snow bands will impact the US-131 corridor and I-75, amongst other major roadways, and will result in dangerous travel.
Lake effect snow continues for northwest snow belts tonight. Although wind speeds will decrease overall, it will still be breezy and thus blowing and drifting snow will continue. Very low visibility and dangerous travel will remain at times. Intense lake effect bands will continue early into the night, slowly losing intensity for most towards early Friday. Still, a general 3 to 6” of additional snow is expected overnight.
Another storm system crossing the central US this weekend will bring a second round of snowfall to our region starting as early as Saturday afternoon/evening. Track and timing of the system are still up in the air, so details like exact amounts are a little fuzzy at this time. That being said, there is a medium to high potential for 2 inches or more of snow later Saturday through Sunday night.
Here’s a look at the approximate location of some of the heavier snow bands throughout the day today (darker blues). Locations under the darker blue shades for the longest period of time will see the highest snow totals, and thus, dangerous travel conditions.
