Winter Weather Advisories for the Marquette area and places west, while a Winter Storm Warning for areas east. A heavy weight snow will continue to fall today, heavy rates at times. Some rain could mix in, making snow amounts tricky, before it goes to all snow later in the afternoon and this evening. 3-7″ generally Marquette to the western U.P. shores, and up to 8-12″ east of Marquette. Downtown Marquette probably getting 3-5″. The weight of the snow will make it difficult to shovel, and driving will be difficult, especially when you factor in wind gusts to 40 mph. As temperatures drop below freezing by late afternoon, the roads will ice up, making for difficult travel through the evening. The snow will taper off after midnight tonight, leading to cold temperatures for the weekend. Getting milder next week.
