Gaylord, MI — Snow showers will persist across northern Michigan this week as cold air drives lake effect snow along the Michigan and Huron shorelines. Temperatures will remain frigid, ranging from 15 to 27 degrees Tuesday, with wind chills making it feel even colder.
According to the National Weather Service in Gaylord, snow showers today will result in light accumulations, generally less than an inch, but heavier bands could bring localized totals of 2-4 inches, particularly in Leelanau and Grand Traverse counties. Drivers on U.S. 31 and surrounding roads should expect slick conditions and reduced visibility at times.
The forecast for Tuesday calls for mostly cloudy skies and a 20% chance of additional snow showers after 1 p.m. Northwest winds of 5-10 mph will contribute to biting wind chills, particularly in exposed areas. Overnight, temperatures will drop to near 0 degrees, with wind
