3/1 Michigan Weather 6 AM: Snow

Good morning. Michigan. I'm Aaron Jolly. That Canadian air snuck in overnight like a houseguest who doesn't knock. A low pressure system pulled south, dragging Arctic cold behind it. That's why your thermometer looks angry this morning. but here's the twist. This is the last truly bitter day for a while. In the next 24 hours. Yesterday's snow left about seven tenths of an inch on the ground. Nothing dramatic, but enough to make the world look fresh. Now high pressure is muscling in, clearing our skies and locking in the chill. Up in Northern Michigan, you're waking up to 9 degrees. Brutal. Highs only reach 22 today under partly sunny skies. A stray snow shower could sneak through this afternoon. Tonight drops back to 11 degrees as skies clear. Slide down to West Michigan and it's a touch more forgiving. Seventeen degrees right now, sunny skies pushing you to 32 by this afternoon. Tonight settles back to 17. Over in Southeast Michigan, you're at 22 degrees but that north wind makes it feel like 12. Any leftover snow showers wrap up by 7 A.M. Then sunshine takes over with a high near 30. Tonight dips to 19. Now the good stuff. Monday starts the turnaround. Sunshine everywhere, highs climbing into the mid 30s to near 40. Tuesday might open with a wintry mix before flipping to rain. Then. The pattern completely shifts. Fifties by Wednesday. Potentially 60 degrees by Friday. Several rounds of rain roll through late week. Folks, that warmth plus rain means rapid snowmelt. If you live near a river, keep your eyes open. In One more reason to smile. Sunrise hits at 7, 15 this morning. We're gaining nearly three minutes of daylight every day now. Spring equinox is just 19 days out. Charge up, grab that extra layer. and enjoy the sunshine. Last cold one for a while. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
