All of SE Mich. under Winter Storm Warning Wednesday

(WJBK) - The National Weather Service has placed all of southeast Michigan under a Winter Storm Warning Wednesday. The warning begins officially at 10 a.m., and will last throughout the whole day until 12 a.m. Thursday. 

Wednesday beings with dangerously cold temperatures. Many cities will see single digit temps, with some spots getting a bitter wind hitting 30 MPH. 

Many schools and school districts canceled classes Wednesday amid the frigid temps and the upcoming snow. You can see a full list of school closures here. 

Midland, Saginaw, Shiawassee, Genesee, Lapeer, Livingston, Oakland, Macomb, Washtenaw and Wayne counties are all under the Winter Storm Warning. 

Bitter cold, another blast of winter for Wednesday in Detroit

Several inches of snow is expected to fall Wednesday throughout the day. Models are showing most areas will see another 3 inches of snow, with some getting as much as another 7 inches.

Peak snowfall will be in the late afternoon hours, which will surely create a messy commute home. By 5 p.m., nearly 2 inches will already be on the ground and more falling.

Plan on a much longer than usual commute this evening. A longer, safer commute is always better than an accident. Check out the latest traffic information at fox2detroit.com/traffic.

Many cities have declared a snow emergency, which means parking on neighborhood streets isn't allowed. You can see a full list of declared snow emergencies here. 

After this system we don't see many major snow makers for about a week. Flurries are expected on and off but the next big winter system may arrive on Christmas Eve. We'll keep an eye on it.
