Muskegon, MI – Snow continues to impact western Michigan, with a Winter Weather Advisory remaining in effect until 7 PM EST Monday for several counties, including Muskegon, Ottawa, Allegan, and Van Buren.
According to the National Weather Service in Grand Rapids, lake effect snow is expected to bring an additional 1 to 3 inches throughout the day. The snowfall could create rapidly changing road conditions and reduced visibility, especially along the lakeshore.
Travelers should prepare for slippery roads, particularly during the Monday evening commute. Areas such as Holland, South Haven, and Grand Haven may experience sudden whiteout conditions due to intense snowfall in localized bands.
Authorities advise drivers to slow down and use caution, as road conditions can shift unpredictably within a few miles. Visibility may also decrease sharply in heavier snow showers.
The advisory extends across portions of southwest and west-central Michigan, where lake effect snow is most prominent. The snowfall is expected to taper off after 7 PM, but lingering flurries may still impact travel overnight.
For updated road conditions, travelers are encouraged to check MDOT resourcesbefore heading out.
