It feels like a return to winter this Monday. Winds out of the northwest will keep us feeling cooler and fuel lake effect snow showers and flurries.
The snow showers we are experiencing have resulted in challenging traffic with multiple crashes, spinouts and slide offs on the U.S. 20 bypass in South Bend and Elkhart, County Road 17 toward Goshen, as well as portions of southwestern Michigan, including M-139 in Berrien Springs.
Temperatures warm into the mid 30s this afternoon, but it might only feel like the low 20s. Lake effect snow should taper by the evening. Some minor accumulations (around 1″) are possible mainly in grassy areas today.
Tonight is cloudy but dry with lows in the upper 20s. We’ll warm near 50 Tuesday, but it is breezy with wind gusts +30 mph possible. Wednesday the sunshine returns, but highs stay near 40. Thursday’s temperatures are similar. Thursday overnight, we could see a rain/snow mix, leading to wet weather out the door Friday. High temperatures rebound near 50 by the weekend.
