The next lake effect snow event will impact the area through Wednesday morning. In total more than six inches of snow is likely across northern Indiana and southwest lower Michigan. This will impact the morning and evening commute Tuesday and the Wednesday morning drive. Some areas could see up to a foot of snow through early Wednesday. Blowing, drifting and low visibility will add to driving hazards with these lake effect bands as a northwest gusts in excess of 20 mph.

Tuesday: Lake effect snow showers, high 22.

Wednesday: AM snow ending, a lull then more snow late, high of 25.
