Live road conditions in Metro Detroit

Subzero wind chills dominate with very little relief throughout the day. 

Next round of snow

Now onto the next round. Friday’s system moves in during the morning commute with off and on snow through the day. A solid 1–3 inches will lead to slick travel once again. 

Snow showers continue Saturday with a couple more inches possible. 

If we’re lucky, Sunday offers a brief break before another system arrives Monday, followed by an even colder push.
