Metro Detroit weather: Dry day before next band of snow Thursday

Published February 14, 2024 6:21 AM EST

The sun will show herself again today as high pressure sweeps into the Great Lakes, setting the stage for our next weather maker.

As we look ahead, a weather transition is on the horizon. Starting Thursday morning, between 7 and 9 a.m., we anticipate the arrival of snow in the north and rain in the greener southern regions. This marks the beginning of a few hour stretch of dynamic weather. 

The flurry of activity winds down by early in the afternoon and there will be melting involved as temps head for 40° by day's end. Snow totals will range: higher north, lower south. I-94 from Detroit to Ann Arbor and south, I'll say an inch or under, with 1-3" north to I-69 and higher numbers up into Sanilac County. 

Here's a more detailed look at snow potential:

We'll turn colder Friday and that feel will stick for the weekend.
