Michigan greets the morning with a cold, damp chill as light snow showers drift over Marquette, lightly coating roads and rooftops. The air feels raw, and even brief bursts of snow can create slick patches on untreated pavement.
Temperatures climb toward 34°F today, right near the freezing mark. That borderline temperature means roads may alternate between wet and slushy. Along US-41 and M-28, conditions can change quickly, especially on bridges and shaded stretches.
Snow showers remain scattered through late morning before tapering off. Skies stay mostly cloudy, and winds add a brisk edge to the air. While accumulation stays light, visibility may briefly drop during passing snow.
By tonight, temperatures fall back near 30°F. Any leftover moisture from daytime melting could refreeze, creating black ice. This is a classic March setup where roads look clear but turn slick fast. Use caution if traveling after sunset.
Thursday offers a short break with partial sunshine and highs near 38°F. That’s your window for improved travel and outdoor plans before the next system arrives.
By Thursday night, a wintry mix develops. Snow may mix with rain, then transition toward rain showers by Friday as temperatures reach the low 40s. Expect wet, slushy roads and reduced visibility at times.
The weekend trends colder again. Saturday brings a chance of rain and snow with highs near 40°F, followed by more snow showers Sunday with highs near 31°F.
