Gaylord, MI – A mix of rain and snow showers is set to move into northern Michigan early Monday, potentially disrupting travel across the region. Residents in Gaylord and nearby areas should prepare for light snow accumulations and colder conditions as Thanksgiving week begins.
According to the National Weather Service, the system will bring showers before 4 p.m. Monday, with temperatures reaching a high near 40 degrees. Snow showers are likely overnight into Tuesday, particularly in the eastern Upper Peninsula and parts of northern lower Michigan. Accumulations may make driving hazardous on major roadways like M-32 and I-75.
Tuesday is expected to be colder, with highs in the mid-30s and a 90% chance of snow showers continuing. Lake-effect snow could impact visibility and lead to icy road conditions through Tuesday night. By Wednesday, scattered snow showers will persist, with lows dipping to 24 degrees, creating additional hazards for pre-Thanksgiving travel.
Residents are advised to monitor local forecasts and plan for slower commutes, especially on untreated surfaces. Thanksgiving Day is expected to remain chilly, with a high near 34 and a chance of light snow.
For those traveling later in the week, snow is likely to continue Friday and Saturday, with highs in the low 30s. Motorists should remain vigilant and check for updated advisories as conditions evolve.
