Another round of winter weather is heading for parts of northern Michigan that's expected to begin tomorrow morning and last through the Thursday afternoon, according to the National Weather Service.
The Upper Peninsula and parts of the northern Lower Peninsula will experience snow, sleet, freezing rain and wind gusts up to 40 miles per hour. Freezing rain and about 2.5 inches of snow is expected in parts of the region.
"This will not be a widespread significant ice storm by no means," said Michael Bowguth, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Gaylord. "But again, I like to stress that, yeah, we're going to see impacts."
Bowguth says people should be prepared for minor power outages and slick road conditions for their Thursday morning commute. Additionally, as temps rise throughout the day, Bowguth says there's potential for severe thunderstorms tomorrow evening.
"There could be some minor flooding issues especially on those poor drainage areas and by late tomorrow afternoon and tomorrow evening," Bowguth said. "We could be looking at potential for actually some isolated severe weather."
