... Winter Storm Watch in effect from Saturday afternoon through
late Saturday night...
The National Weather Service in Detroit/Pontiac has issued a
Winter Storm Watch... which is in effect from Saturday afternoon
through late Saturday night. Precipitation is expected to begin as
rain Saturday morning... transitioning to snow through mid-
afternoon. Snow will be heavy at times with accumulations of 5 to
8 inches possible by early Sunday morning. The transition to snow will
occur last near the Michigan border where accumulations will be
closer to the low end of this range.
A Winter Storm Watch means there is a potential for significant
snow... sleet... and wind that may impact travel. As the system passes
east of the area during the evening... winds will increase with
gusts to 30 mph... causing snow to blow and drift. This blowing and
drifting of snow will cause further restriction to visibility
making driving conditions increasingly difficult. Persons within
the watch area should plan to avoid driving Saturday afternoon and
night.
Changes in the track of this storm may cause the location
of the highest snow accumulation to change. Please continue to
monitor the latest forecasts for details about this approaching
winter storm.
