A wintry mix is possible across the north. It'll be raw with windy conditions coming right off of Lake Michigan. A few thunderstorms are also possible. This precipitation continues into Friday night with things changing to snow,freezing rain & sleet. Saturday, there will still be a mix of freezing rain, sleet & snow going over to all snow from north to south. It will also very windy......with NE wind gusts over 45 mph likely. Some Lakeshore flooding is possible along the bay. It looks like this will be all snow through the day on Sunday. The snow will fall heavily at times. It'll also be windy, so blowing and drifting snow could be an issue. Some spots could see over a foot of snow by Monday AM. Light snow will taper off to flurries on Monday. Just be aware if you have travel plans, especially north on Friday, then Saturday night/Sunday for the whole state, that could be a problem. We'll keep you updated as the latest data rolls in.
