Weather Updates from TV6 Meteorologists Karl Bohnak and Jennifer Perez
Tuesday’s thaw ends in the U.P. as a fast-moving clipper system enters the region from Northwestern Ontario, bringing strong westerly winds and scattered snow showers spreading from west to east through early Wednesday morning. Lake effect snow showers then develop over the west wind belts in the afternoon and lasting until late in the evening when drier air aloft mixes in.
A west-northwesterly jet stream tracks in a series of clipper systems from the Canadian Prairies to bring snow chances to U.P. Friday through next Monday.
Under the west-northwesterly jet stream, temperatures trend below seasonal midweek through the weekend in Upper Michigan, with a gradual warmup transition next week.
