More Snow Bursts, Blustery Winds Ahead

DETROIT, MI — More strong gusts of winds and occasional blasts of snow are in the forecast across Michigan for the rest of the week, tightening winter’s grasp on this year’s April weather. The National Weather Service issued a hazardous weather outlook for 17 counties across the state, including Wayne, Oakland, Macomb and Washtenaw.

While Wednesday will remain mostly sunny, they predict a moderate snowfall starting early Thursday morning and an accumulation of 1-3 inches by Friday morning. The highest amounts are anticipated between the M-59 and I-69 corridors, but the snow only lasts a few hours at a time.

Thursday warms up to 46 degrees, with more rain and snow showers and winds reaching as high as 39 mph. The weekend weather is expected to drop slightly in temp, but temporarily stop the snow. Anticipate its return by Monday, though.
