Warning Summary: ...Moderate To Heavy Snow Possible Saturday Night Into Sunday Near Lake

Superior...

Warning Message:

The passage of an Arctic front combined with low pressure moving

just to the south will bring the potential for moderate to heavy lake

enhanced snow to northern Upper Michigan Saturday night into Sunday.

Gusty northeast to north winds in the wake of the front will also

cause areas of blowing snow...especially along exposed terrain along

Lake Superior. Total snow accumulation of 6 to 10 inches is possible

over higher terrain from Ironwood through White Pine to

Rockland...while 7 to 11 inches is possible from Herman through the

Huron Mountains to Negaunee. Across the remainder of northern Upper

Michigan...total snowfall amounts of 4 to 7 inches will be more

common through Sunday evening.

Expect roadways to become snow-covered and slippery making travel

hazardous Saturday night into Sunday. If you must travel...slow down

and allow plenty of extra time to reach your destination.
