The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Kara James: The FOX 17 WEATHER READY ALERT continues overnight. Lake effect snow showers will produce locally heavy accumulations in our lakeshore counties into early Tuesday morning. Reports have already come in at over 10" in Berrien County! Another 1-3" along the lakeshore is possible, with locally higher totals in Van Buren, Berrien and Cass counties. Much lighter amounts are expected inland, a dusting to maybe half an inch at best. Be careful driving Tuesday morning as roads will be slick in spots. Tuesday will be a cold, breezy day but mainly dry. Temperatures will start to warm up Thursday into the weekend, with middle to upper 50s expected and some sunshine. A system this weekend brings rain and breezy winds, and a return to cooler temperatures.
