A burst of lake effect snow is expected this morning. The increase in intensity of the snow is due to an disturbance swinging across Lake Michigan. Through the course of the afternoon the snow should wind down. For a time this morning though, travel conditions will be poor with limited visibility and slippery roads. Some additional light snow is possible tonight into Saturday as a weakening warm front moves our way. A weakening low may bring us some rain and snow on Sunday as warmer air will have moved into the region from the south. Highs will remain in the 20s again today, but by Sunday we should be well into the 30s.
