A weather roller coaster ride ahead for Mid-Michigan

After crashing back to reality in a big way on Friday, our weather is set for plenty of ups and downs in the lead-up to Christmas.

LANSING, Mich. — Lake effect snow showers will come to an end this evening as winds pivot toward the south. Fortunately, that will stop temperatures from dropping any further. Readings will hold around 20 degrees through midnight, then climb toward the mid 20s by daybreak. Wind chills will remain in the single-digits and teens, as sustained winds hold around 5-15 mph with higher gusts. Partly to mostly cloudy skies are expected.

From here, we move into more of a roller coaster weather pattern for the next week. Following Friday's bitter cold, we warm back into the upper 30s on Saturday as a small disturbance tracks through the Great Lakes. A few rain and snow showers will be possible, with mostly cloudy skies.
