Partly sunny skies continue Tuesday with high temperatures climbing into the low 40s. Strong westerly winds continue 15-25 mph.
After that, all eyes will be on a storm system developing to our southwest Wednesday. There is better model agreement that this storm will move through the Ohio River valley. This means rain, sleet, and snow will stay south of southeast Michigan for Thanksgiving. This is great news for those staying local as skies will be mostly to partly sunny Thanksgiving with highs near 40°. If you are traveling south into Ohio or Indiana you may run into slippery conditions, and there still may be air travel delays depending on conditions at your destination airport.
Northwesterly winds pick up behind this storm, triggering lake effect snow showers starting Friday. We'll keep a chance for the snow showers through the weekend and winds persist over the relatively warm lake waters. Temperatures will be chilly with lows in the low 20s and highs in the low 30s.
