Justin Liles: Lingering lake effect snow for the south shore
[anvplayer video=”5142309″ station=”998130″]
Parts of the south shore are still under a Winter Weather Advisory or a Winter Storm Warning until 7pm this evening. Lake Effect snow continue to fall from the Bayfield Peninsula through the U.P. of Michigan. Some areas like Gile, WI have received over a foot of snowfall. Now if you live in this area you are likely cleaning up snow today. If you are an outdoor winter enthusiast, do not get to excited. We are looking a nice warm up through the week and into the weekend.
A lot of the snow is likely to melt as temperatures climb into the upper 50s and lower 60s by the end of the week and into the weekend. This rapid melt could create some minor flooding along parts of the south shore later in the week. Temperatures look to warm up decently to allow some rain showers to develop late Sunday into Monday.
