Leaving here Friday you’re fine. Could run into rain farther south Saturday…
@GrossWeather Help me out Paul, driving to Florida Friday, trying to time it between these snow storms this week. Takes us 2 days, first night stop is Cleveland, TN. Leaving Friday morning should be OK?

Monday AM update: Confidence is growing for a significant winter storm to affect the Lower Peninsula Wednesday night. As mentioned yesterday, its exact track will determine how much ice (if any) SE Michigan gets, which determines how much snow we get. Stay tuned…. ❄️ 🧊

I’m sorry. But this half time show sucks.

Two reasons I do: 1) It’s MUCH easier to be jumped or towed if needed (which happened to me once) and 2) MUCH easier to see pedestrian and vehicular traffic around you than if backing out. It’s logically better to back in, but whatever works for you…
Who are these psychopaths who feel the need to back into parking spaces?

And that small of an error on a track that starts over the Pacific is exactly why responsible meteorologists don’t post snowfall total maps this far in advance. It’s irresponsible…
@GrossWeather Thanks Paul, a 50 mile jog to the north probably means that mid-Michigan gets more of the snow.

Football loses a great one…deepest condolences to Dick’s family. Of all the Lions’ coaches I’ve advised about their game and practice weather over many years, Dick was the only one to personally thank me. Such a classy man.
Damn. Coach Jauron was the first person I ever interviewed all the way back in Jr High. Years later, when he was coaching in Detroit, he would get wx reports from my cousin (@GrossWeather) and would ask how I was doing. He was a first class guy and will be missed.

Saturday AM update: Snow develops late PM, especially south. Far south could see a bit of sleet/freezing rain. Snow accumulation under an inch for most, but could approach 2” south of I-94 in areas that stay all snow. Tenuous forecast, but that’s how it looks now.

Dear Mr. @elonmusk, The National Weather Service official mission statement says it is to provide warnings, etc “for the protection of life and property and enhancement of the national economy.” Have you changed this? If not, reach out to me - I can advise you in this area.
