There's nothing much to say about the snow that will fall today. A weak area of low pressure will move to our north, triggering light snow across all of SE Michigan. There's no need for a snowfall map with this event, as all areas in SE Michigan should see 1-3" of snow. Here in Lake Orion, we'll probably be leaning towards 3" as opposed to 1". The only story with this event is that strong southwest winds during the day will lead to the blowing and drifting of snow. After the snow ends this afternoon, there will be a brief lull in winds, before they shift to the northwest tonight as a reinforcing shot of cold air comes down from the northwest. These strong northwest winds will likely blow the snow around some more. But all in all, this is the type of event we see many times every season, so it should be no big deal. What is worth making a big deal about is a strong system moving in mid-week. Depending on the track of this system, we could get a snowstorm, an ice storm, or yes, unfortunately, even a rain storm. I'll post about that system starting tomorrow.
