Storm Looming for late next week??

Weather will be quiet for the most part across Mid-Michigan for the next week. Some short-wave disturbances do have a chance to make a run towards the Great Lakes, however, for the time being there isn't much evidence to show for any chance of a substantial winter storm.

Our next chance for snow/mix will be Sunday, as a weak wave of low pressure will track through southeastern lower Michigan. The GFS and NAM both pump out hardly any moisture with the storm, however, the NAM does show slightly more than the GFS. Ahead of the storm, some moisture from the Gulf of Mexico will build in and advect, causing a warm layer of air. This most likely will lead to only rain or a mix for much of the area. Depending on the exact track of this system, some of Mid-MI could see only a few snow pellets or rain drops, so, the likelihood of any snow is very low. Temperatures will easily increase as we head into tonight and tomorrow, moving from the teens currently, to the lower 30's for tomorrow and the rest of the weekend.

Following this weak disturbance we look towards late next week when a Alberta Clipper will move into the Great Lakes. As of right now there is little confidence on this system, so, we'll just have to wait and see how it plays out.
