WEST MICHIGAN — As we dig out from this weekend's significant snow event, a WINTER STORM WARNING and WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY have been issued for several West Michigan counties for another round of locally heavy snow.

Check out how much snow has fallen as of 10 p.m. Monday:

Muskegon, Oceana and Ottawa Counties have seen the heaviest snow, with a nearly stationary lake effect snow band dumping heavy snow since Monday afternoon. There will be the potential for portions of those counties to pick up several more inches overnight, with a grand total of nearly ANOTHER FOOT of snow since this weekend!

Those extremely high totals will be very isolated, but any locations underneath this band will be able to accumulate snow at 1/2" to 1" per hour.

Widespread heavy snow is also likely in Newaygo County; with the potential for at least 6" of new snow by the time it winds down around midday Tuesday.

Impacts will be mainly limited to the immediate lakeshore, but road conditions will be terrible overnight into Tuesday, and will likely be poor for the Tuesday morning work and school commute. As the snow ends, conditions will slowly improve.
