The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Terri DeBoer: Watch for slippery travel conditions tonight into Sunday as a wintry mixture of rain and snow is moving into West Michigan. This area of mixed precipitation will make the transition to snow by early Sunday morning before coming to an end. The widespread rain-snow will wind down early Sunday, with colder air bringing the first round of Lake Effect Snow Showers for Sunday and Monday. Areas along and West of US-131 will have the best chance for accumulation, with portions of Western Allegan, Van Buren, Berrien and Cass counties likely receiving at least 1-3 inches of snow. A WINTER STORM WATCH will be in effect for Berrien County around the foot of Lake Michigan from Sunday afternoon through Monday evening, for the potential for several inches of Lake Effect Snow. The “average” first snow in Grand Rapids is November 8, so this would be right on schedule. Accumulations may be slushy, but are possible! What we actually measure may be different than what falls! Stay with the FOX 17 Weather Ready Team for your latest forecast updates.
