Marquette, Michigan – Lake effect snow will continue across the western and north-central Upper Peninsula tonight, bringing up to 4 inches and reduced visibility in higher terrain.
According to the National Weather Service in Marquette, additional snowfall totals of 2 to 4 inches are expected over the Keweenaw Peninsula and higher elevations of the western U.P., with localized totals near 6 inches in parts of the north-central region. Snow is forecast to taper off Monday morning.
Gusty northerly winds are expected to cause blowing and drifting snow, especially along M-28 between Marquette and Munising and along M-26 from Copper Harbor to Eagle River. Areas of very low visibility are possible through the first half of the night.
Winter Weather Advisories remain in effect across portions of the western and north-central Upper Peninsula.
The combination of fluffy snowfall and gusty winds could make travel difficult overnight, particularly for late-shift workers and students returning to campus.
Drivers are urged to slow down and allow extra travel time where visibility drops.
