Lansing, MI – Michigan residents should brace for heavy snow and freezing conditions during the Thanksgiving travel period. A developing low-pressure system is expected to bring unsettled weather from November 27 through early December.
According to the NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center, heavy snow (20–40% chance) is likely across the Great Lakes region, including Michigan. Temperatures could fall below freezing, with wind chills dropping significantly in some areas. Hazardous travel conditions are anticipated as snow combines with gusty winds.
The system could also bring heavy precipitation (40–60% chance) across the Midwest and Ohio Valley. Accumulations may cause delays, particularly on November 27 and 28, the busiest travel days. Experts recommend monitoring local forecasts and preparing for icy roads and reduced visibility.
Thanksgiving travelers should plan ahead and carry winter essentials. Those driving through affected areas should expect slow-moving traffic and potential closures. Stay informed by checking updates from the National Weather Service.
