Winter storm watch for heavy snow

Kowloon is going to be heavy on Saturday morning. Let me put it that way. And this is a very wet and heavy snow. Winter storm watch for the whole area starts at noon tomorrow for everybody except Lapir, port here on area Sandlec, Sinclair County, and Lapir County. That starts at three o'clock. So it's from noon to two a.m.

generally and the wet and heavy snow will be tough to move around, tough to shovel. Also compacts quickly on the roads and gets things slippery quickly toward the evening in Russia as well, more so than earlier in the day. Heaviest snowfall rate says as fast as it's coming down between five p.m. and midnight. So you won't wake up to snow tomorrow. Even by lunchtime, a lot of areas, certainly north of Detroit, probably don't have snow, but it's the late day hours overnight into Saturday mornings when the snow really starts to pick up widespread, moving south to north.

Heaviest again, five p.m. to midnight. The rate of snow will be an inch per hour in those hours and that's six or seven hours right there. Rough evening travel, yes. In terms of the morning, we're in pretty good shape. Be dry roads for everybody for the morning early morning rush.

Noontime, north of Detroit, you're okay around the city and to the south. The special street starts to get a bit more interesting, little caution there, but deteriorates pretty quickly in the evening rush hour because it will have been snowing for a while. Look at these temperatures though. That's important to note. There won't be nearly as much on the roads as the totals I'm going to show you in just a little bit because the roads will be staying warm and the temperatures are warm. Right now it is a severe weather storm down here in Oklahoma and Texas. The path that it takes us from the southwest to northeast through our area here and it'll be centered just off toward southeast.

All of this is green because it's just warm enough there that it should be mostly rain. For us, that little slide to the southeast puts it mostly cold. So here's noon. Here's two o'clock in the afternoon, four o'clock in the afternoon. Snow, snow, snow, snow. Again, the temperatures that are in the mid thirties for much of the day will battle some of that. But when the rates start to really get high late in the day and through the evening hours into the overnight, that's when we'll start to pick up the accumulation the most.

Six to eight inches widespread, three to six in Monroe County. There'll be a bull's eye of eight or a little bit more just north and west of Detroit. This is a very, very wet storm. So little changes can mean big changes. No totals will keep you updated if those changes happen tonight or tomorrow morning. Temperatures overnight in the upper twenties around Detroit, 31 in Monroe. Tomorrow again, the mid thirties help us.

Not enough though when it really starts to come down late in the day and through the evening hours. So wet, heavy snow, Dave, use your legs, not your back. Right. I'm already.
