Just as this bitterly cold airmass starts to move out of Michigan on Wednesday, snowfall is expected to re-intensify across part of Michigan. This could lead to as much as 6 inches of new snow across some areas that already have been hard-hit by lake-effect snow in the last couple of weeks, the National Weather Service (NWS) said.

In addition to the cold, lake-effect snow that began Sunday will continue through Tuesday night, creating icy, snow-covered roadways.

A Winter Weather Advisory has been issued for much of West Michigan through Tuesday evening. The heaviest snow will fall closer to the lakeshore with lower amounts the further east you go. This will be very light and fluffy snow due to frigid temperatures. That means the snow will easily blow around and could create whiteouts.

Winds out of the north-northwest will bring persistent snow bands to the immediate lakeshore tonight with a widespread 1-3" of snow expected along US-31 by tomorrow morning. Winds shift to become northwesterly Sunday which will allow for lake-effect snow to spread further inland, though most snowfall will stay west of US-131.
