#miweather**Please see latest post with forecast snowfall totals**
Another storm system will approach the region Sunday-Sunday night, bringing the potential for accumulating snow, especially across northern lower Michigan. The greatest chance for several inches of accumulating snow is expected near M-55 and Saginaw Bay.
#miweatherA warming trend is on the way later this weekend into early next week, but first we have to get through occasional rain and/or snow showers today. Not expecting much in the way of accumulating snow today, but could be a few slick spots on roadways this morning.
#miweatherThe Rain and freezing rain from the night will continue this morning, before temperatures warm above freezing. Then rain will continue into the afternoon before gradually ending.
#miweatherUse caution if your out traveling this morning as roads may be slippery due to the wintry mix of precipitation that fell overnight and early this morning. Otherwise, freezing drizzle remains possible through the morning hours, and then occasional snow/rain showers later this afternoon. South-southwest winds will become breezy this afternoon, especially over eastern Upper Michigan.
#miweatherSnow has finally overspread Upper Michigan, and a sloppy mess of mixed precipitation will work it's way northward tonight. Travel will become difficult in many locations. It'll be a good night to stay in.
#miweatherA band of heavy snow will continue to lift northward across northern Michigan this morning. Snowfall rates of 1”+ per hour are likely with a quick couple of inches of accumulation possible. Slow down and allow extra time to reach your destination!
More snow on the way for the Upper Peninsula.... #miweatherA large winter storm moving into the region will bring snow and a wintry mix to west and central Upper Michigan from late tonight into Thursday night. Moderate to heavy snow will change over to a mix of sleet, freezing rain, and rain over the southeast half late Thursday. The snow and mixed precipitation will result in hazardous driving conditions. In addition, strong east winds and some icing could produce sporadic power outages.
Snow in the forecast for the U.P. .... #miweatherExpect periods of rain showers tonight along with some patchy fog. The rain showers will mix with snow over the northern sections of Upper Michigan by early Tuesday morning. A chance of mixed rain and snow showers continues into Tuesday. A significant winter storm has the potential to impact the region on Thursday into Friday with heavy snow and a wintry mix.
Some snow in the forecast later in the week... #miweather...Wintry Spring Storm Eyeing the Great Lakes...
A storm system lifting up into the Great Lakes during the upcoming work week, could bring another round of mid-April wintry precipitation to northern Michigan.
Winter returns this week in the Western U.P. and the Keweenaw Peninsula.... #miweather

Virga is occurring over NWS Gaylord! Ice crystals falling out of high clouds are sublimating before ever reaching the ground.
I saw them today and wondered what they were called. Thanks for the explanation.
I'm sorry but I had to Google sublimating.
Wow, how cool is that!
Wow!
Saw these so cool !
Amber Elizabeth these are why your clouds looked like they did!
Tonight skies will stay clear, allowing temperatures to dip below freezing for many areas across the Upper Peninsula. The warmest areas will be closer to the lakeshores. Tomorrow, temperatures will climb to near 60° for much of the lakeshores, and into the upper 60s south and west. Sunday, there is a chance for rain. High temperatures will range from the upper 40s to low 50s near the lakeshores, and the mid 50s to low 60s inland.
I was but discovered ins co closed all aft for Good Friday. 🙁🙁🙁. Enjoy your ride
Bet there will be a handful that hit 70 tomorrow.
Beautiful weather. Now if only it will stay this way.
So...tomorrow is the official get-the-harley-out-of-winter-storage day!
...Cool Spring Rain, dampens northern Michigan...
Rain showers lingering over the eastern Great Lakes, generated some significant rainfall long the Lake Huron shoreline during the past 24 hours.
US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan This morning I captured these clouds while taking a photo of the USCG Mackinac in port at Cheboygan. I'm at a loss for what they are. Can you tell what kind of clouds these are? The odd straight line clouds that look like tufts. Maybe stratocumolous??? Too bad I didn't have my camera with me for a clearer look at them. thanks
The weather will be drier this weekend for most of northern Michigan as the only rain will remain closer to Saginaw Bay, this morning and for Saturday afternoon. Sunday will be partly sunny and warmer, with scattered showers moving in overnight.
It is raining and dismal here in South Branch. Maybe It Will Clear Up This Afternoon. 😊
Good forecast! Thank you.
Maybe a great weekend!? We need this Northern Michigan. 😎👍😊
Nice to read it, that will brighten the moods for many! 🙂
Today's weather story features plenty of sunshine and warmer conditions. The recent rain and ongoing snow melt will continue to result in minor river flooding in some areas.
