WEST MICHIGAN — From Fox 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Kara James: After many enjoyed some dry time Tuesday afternoon, another round of snow will be moving in overnight, causing a difficult Wednesday morning commute for most. A Winter Storm Warning has been issued for Oceana, Muskegon and Ottawa counties from midnight to 10 a.m. Wednesday, for 3-6" of snow and pockets of snow up to around a foot. The rest of West Michigan is under a Winter Weather Advisory from 1 a.m. to 10 a.m. Wednesday, for 2-6" of snow. The Wednesday morning commute will be very challenging, due to packed snow and fresh snow, and gusty winds. More rounds of snow develop through the rest of the work week, but will be mainly lake enhanced. The coldest days this week will be Friday, Saturday and Sunday as true Polar air moves in, with morning temperatures around or below zero. Wind chills will be as low as -10 to -20. That is dangerous cold, and will be near record cold!
