WINTER STORM WARNING NOW IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM EDT TUESDAY…
Heavy, wet snow will continue into Tuesday, mainly inland from Lake Superior, resulting in poor travel conditions. Additional snow accumulations of 4 to 12 inches are expected in the higher terrain a few miles inland from Lake Superior with locally higher totals approaching 14 inches possible across the Michigamme Highlands.
Near the shoreline, little or no snow accumulation will occur due to rain only or rain mixing with the snow at times. Winds gusting as high as 45 mph through this evening then as high as 50 mph into Tuesday. Travel could be very difficult to impossible in some high terrain areas. The hazardous conditions will impact the evening commute today and the Tuesday morning commute.
