There’s a winter storm warning for southern lower Michigan with some areas in southwest Michigan having the potential for 20 inches of snow Wednesday and Thursday. National Weather Service meteorologist Ernie Ostuno talks about what they’re expecting.

“The heaviest snow will be in the southern part of the state,” says Ostuno. “Kalamazoo to Jackson along I-94, we’re looking for 6 to 10 inches there. Along I-96 from Grand Rapids to Lansing, there will be a gradient where Lansing will get around 8 inches.”

Michigan cities under a storm warning for up to 20 inches of snow include Benton Harbor, St. Joseph, Buchanan, Cassopolis, Sturgis, Three Rivers, and White Pigeon, along with areas in northern Indiana and extreme northwest Ohio.
