Wet, Wintry Mix Expected Wednesday Afternoon

MICHIGAN — A wintry mix is headed our way Wednesday afternoon, meaning rush hour may include some drizzle and light snow.

The wet weather will try to get going after 1 p.m. today starting as a little drizzle and light snow as highs will stay in the mid 30s right on that threshold of rain and/or snow but it all looks very light through the mid to late afternoon.

Some areas north of I-69 could see all snow and up to an inch of new snow, while the rest of us will struggle to see a half inch of snow as drizzle will likely keep mixing in back and forth.
