Dearborn, MI – Residents across Southeast Michigan should prepare for worsening travel conditions today as a Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect from early morning through late Sunday night.
According to the National Weather Service, the advisory began at 5 a.m. Sunday and continues through midnight Sunday night, with 4 to 6 inches of snow expected across the region. Isolated areas could see up to 7 inches, especially during periods of heavier snowfall later in the day.
The advisory covers Wayne, Washtenaw, and Lenawee counties, including Dearborn and surrounding communities. Snow is expected to intensify at times Sunday afternoon into the evening, when road conditions are likely to become slippery and hazardous, particularly on untreated streets and highways.
Officials warn that snowfall combined with very cold temperatures could further impact travel and outdoor activities over the next several days. Evening commuters may experience slower travel speeds, reduced visibility, and longer drive times.
The Dearborn Police Department is urging residents to take extra precautions. Drivers are advised to slow down, increase following distance, and allow extra time to reach their destinations. Those shoveling snow should pace themselves, take frequent breaks, and dress appropriately to avoid cold-related injuries.
Residents are also encouraged to check on elderly neighbors, friends, and family members, and offer assistance to anyone who may need help during the winter weather.
Conditions may continue to change throughout the day, and drivers should stay alert for updated advisories or warnings.
