Breezy winds are anticipated. High: 33.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Expect the clouds to increase Thursday night and early on Friday morning in advance of our next round of winter weather moving into the region, and this one looks to be more ice than anything else.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">A low-pressure system will move south of the region throughout Friday, with a warm front lifting north toward the area. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">As precipitation moves in along this front, the region will remain on its north side, resulting mainly in freezing rain. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Temperatures are expected to hover near freezing, in the lower 30s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">As of right now, most of the region is looking at 0.10\u2033 to 0.20\u2033 of ice accumulation through early Friday afternoon, and this will be enough to make the roads slick and icy for the first part of the day on Friday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Due to the forecast of freezing rain with ice accumulation on Friday, we have declared a 4Warn Weather Alert for Friday morning into early Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Once the system moves off to the east by Friday afternoon and early Friday evening, we will keep the cloud cover in the forecast Friday night and into the start of the weekend on Saturday. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">High temperatures dropping into the upper 20s Friday night, then warming back into the upper 30s for the start of the weekend on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Our next chance of rain moves into the forecast by the time we get to the end of the weekend on Sunday. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">We could end this system with a mix of rain and snow showers by late Sunday night. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">High temperatures back into the low 40s on Sunday will drop into the upper teens Sunday night and early on Monday morning as colder air moves into the region.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Once the low-pressure system moves off to the east by late Sunday night, a northwesterly flow will kick in for the start of next week on Monday. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">This will bring a lake-effect snow fetch into the region, so snow showers and\/or snow squalls have been brought into the forecast, along with breezy winds. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Temperatures will be much colder to start the week, and daytime high temperatures will only head into the lower 30s by the afternoon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Then, looking ahead to the end of 2025 for New Year\u2019s Eve on Wednesday, we bring chances for snow back into the forecast with a few disturbances rolling into the region. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">High temperatures remaining into the mid to upper-20s by Wednesday afternoon. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">The chances for snow showers remain in the forecast for the start of 2026, as well on Thursday. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">High temperatures remaining in the 20s to lower 30s by Thursday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2025 by WDIV ClickOnDetroit &#8211;
