A clipper system moving through the area should drop another three inches of snow on the area, Rachel Kulik, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in White Lake Township, told The Detroit News.

“It’s just a quick-moving, low-pressure system coming down from Canada,” Kulik said. “It’ll be out of here by tomorrow afternoon but it’s still going to drop between one to three inches.”
