NWS meteorologists say most of the precipitation is expected to be snow, but a light ice glaze is possible in some places. Accumulations should range from a trace to around 3" along and south of I-96, with higher amounts as much as 5" further north toward Mt. Pleasant. Accumulations in Michigan's southern tier of counties should be negligible.

"Some roads in the region could become slushy and slippery, especially north and west of the Detroit metro area. From 3 to 6 inches of snow will fall in the central and northern part of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan," according to AccuWeather.

What Local TV Meteorologists Are Saying

Here's what WILX News 10 First Alert Meteorologist Justin Bradford is thinking:

The compact storm will bring a slushy 1-3′' of snow to the Lansing area with only an inch or less expected near and south of Jackson. North of St. Johns up to the middle part of the state is where the greatest snowfall totals are expected with accumulations in the 3-5′' range. This storm should be moving out of the area by or before lunchtime on Thursday.

Bradford says Thursday's snow event will likely last no more than 6 hours, and that a lot of what falls will melt away by the end of the day.

Here's an idea of what to expect in your town.
