Gaylord, Michigan – Light snow could bring up to 3 inches across parts of northern Michigan tonight, potentially creating slick travel on major roadways including US-131 and I-75.

According to the US National Weather Service in Gaylord, periods of light snow will continue through the night into Sunday morning. Forecast maps show widespread totals between 1 and 3 inches across much of northern Lower Michigan, with locally lower amounts possible in some areas.

Sunday will remain blustery and chilly, with highs ranging from the mid-20s to low-30s. Snow showers are expected to taper, but untreated roads and bridges could remain slick during the morning hours, particularly along M-32 and secondary highways.

Dry but colder air moves in Monday, with highs dropping into the teens and lower 20s. Another system is expected to approach Tuesday, bringing renewed snow chances to the region. Lake effect snow showers may continue into Wednesday.

While accumulations are described as minor, even light snow can reduce visibility and create patchy ice, especially during overnight and early morning travel. Drivers are encouraged to slow down and allow extra stopping distance.

The timing may affect students heading to school and early-shift workers commuting Sunday morning.

Residents are advised to monitor updates from the National Weather Service for any changes.
