Quiet weather for several days

Kind of a boring post today. Not a lot to talk about, as our weather will be pretty quiet for the next 7+ days. There will be a chance of snow showers for the next week, due to the winds whipping up every now and then off of Lake Michigan, but overall, no big snow events on the way. The cause of this is a large arctic high pressure system dropping down from Alaska. It has just moved into the plains and will reach Michigan by Friday. This is the main factor in cutting down on the lake effect snows. Also, our temperatures will linger in the 20s for the next several days. To the side is a preview of temps for Friday going into the weekend.

There is also very low confidence in the long range. A few short-wave lows will pass through the region, but will cause nothing but light lake effect snow showers into early next week. It looks like our next chance for any decent snowstorms won't come until near or just past Christmas.
