Winter Storm to Hit Michigan’s Tri-Cities + Thumb Area This Week

Winter isn't done having its way with us Michiganders just yet, as a winter storm watch is in effect for the middle of the week.

Flint has had a pretty light winter thanks to El Niño (that's Spanish for "The Niño" for those of you not fluent in Español), but Jack Frost is about to get "back up in that ass for the 99 plus 3 nickels and 2 pennies -- add that s--- up," as the kids would say.

According to the National Weather Service, a winter storm warning is in effect for most of Michigan, including a majority of Mid-Michigan and the Thumb area from Wednesday afternoon to Thursday afternoon. We could be looking at 6-10 inches of snow, winds of 30mph, and possible power outages. Temps may reach a low of 18° Thursday night, as you can see below.

Be sure to check out school and business closings page first thing Thursday morning, as you might be getting some extra sleep... or may need to scramble to find a sitter for the kids. I don't know your life.
