The active pattern continues for Lake Orion.
First, a weak low pressure system is moving through the area right now, and it will give Lake Orion up to 1" of snow tonight, which could make the morning commute tomorrow somewhat slick.
Second, a slightly stronger low pressure system will track through the Upper Peninsula and Northern Lower Michigan, likely giving Lake Orion about 1-3" of additional snowfall on Saturday.
Third, and most exciting, all major forecast models have shown some type of system affecting the Great Lakes on Tuesday. As is usual this year, the models have been maddeningly inconsistent with regards to the track of this system, but I am confident that Lake Orion will see some notable weather on Tuesday. At this time, I would lean towards the precipitation type being snow, although that could change. If everything works out, this could be a rather significant storm, and could give you guys a chance of a snow day on Tuesday and/or Wednesday. This is the main system I will be keeping an eye on, and I will have another post up tomorrow afternoon.

Uh oh.... cuttin it close to exam days! O_O
I have no idea what the academic calendar is for the high school this year, but unless they were dumb and put exams on days other than Thursday/Friday, you guys should be fine, as most of the snowfall from this system is now progged to fall on Monday Night. Although, there is another system that will affect you guys on Thursday.
Does the shift in days change your opinion on a snow day? Maybe for Tuesday?
Are we talking around 6-8"?
Looks like the wintry mix is going to screw things up, as always.
