WEST MICHIGAN — The forecast from FOX 17 Meteorologist Haleigh Vaughn: Bundle up as you step outside! Lake effect snow, strong winds, and cold temperatures are in the forecast. Light accumulations along and west of U.S. 131 are expected through Monday. We may see areas along the lakeshore get up to 3", while most inland areas get up to 1". Isolated spots may see up to 4", so watch for slick spots during your Monday morning commute! Most of the snow winds down by Monday evening, but temperatures remain cold in the middle 30s with wind chills again in the 20s. Astronomical Spring arrives Tuesday night at 11:06 P.M.. It's the precise moment the sun is directly overhead of the equator. It's also the day we gain the most sunlight in a 24 hour period. Tuesday brings a few flurries in the morning, with mostly cloudy skies in the afternoon. Plan ahead for cool air and some sunshine on Wednesday. Stay alert with the FOX 17 Weather Team.
