We are definitely in an Alberta Clipper storm track. Alberta Clipper weather systems move fast. The next storm system will be bringing snow to lower Michigan already by Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the radar forecast of the next weather-maker. It\u2019s not a huge snowstorm because this Arctic air doesn\u2019t hold a lot of moisture.<\/p>\n

\"nextRadar forecast from 8 p.m. Tuesday to 1 a.m. Thursday.NOAA<\/p>\n

It will be a widespread snow, but what I would call a light-to-moderate snow. The cold air will make tiny flakes that pack together and create slick roads, even with only an inch or two of snow.<\/p>\n

Right now it looks like the \u201cheaviest\u201d snow will fall over the southern half of Lower Michigan Wednesday. The snow should already be falling and covering the roads with an inch of snow by the Wednesday morning rush hour.<\/p>\n

For some of us in the southeast, Wednesday could have worse roads than the bigger headline storm system today. The roads have mostly stayed dry over southeast Lower today.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the total snowfall forecast. I\u2019d call it a one inch to three inch snow for the southern half of Lower Michigan. Along the Lake Michigan shore, from South Haven to Muskegon, could have four to five inches of snow. Again, not a big snowstorm by Michigan standards, but a slick day on the roads is coming Wednesday.<\/p>\n

After this Alberta Clipper passes east, the main load of Arctic air will drop south over Michigan. Friday and Saturday will have a hard time warming above zero degrees.<\/p>\n

These weather systems can sometimes have a couple more inches that expected, if the flakes turn bigger and the storm strengthens a touch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We are definitely in an Alberta Clipper storm track.
