The snow showery marathon continues as Great Plains systems and the lake effect work in tandem to spread light to moderate snow throughout Upper Michigan Wednesday. Snow chances and intensity minimize Thursday as high pressure rebuilds in the region. Then Friday, a clipper system from the Canadian Prairies brings widespread snow showers and blustery conditions. Lake effect snow follows after system passage in the weekend, plus the creeping of frigid air steered in by the polar jet stream.
