Mexico City.- A swift-hitting storm, called Clíper from Alberta, will cross the United States and cause the first major snowfalls in some cities in the northern Midwest and near the Great Lakes, according to AccuWeather. Weather conditions will start to get colder from Friday until Monday morning at the latest.
Forecasters estimate that Friday night the storm system start your route from Western Canada and head northeast into the Rocky Mountains and the upper Midwest. Then the first snow is expected to fall from Minnesota to Michigan beginning Saturday morning.
However, the cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul may receive much less snow than expected, as experts estimate that there will be more snowfall in unpaved areas this weekend, but the winds can take their action at any time.
“ Saturday night can be tricky for some larger metropolitan areas like Detroit as the sun goes down and temperatures drop, “said AccuWeather meteorologist Adam Douty.
Starting Sunday, some areas may start Sunday with temperatures below freezing and with a slight snowfall on the streets and developments near Detroit.
The snowfall is expected to stay over the Great Lakes through Sunday leaving up to 3 inches. Additionally, lake effect snowfall will also affect Michigan, which could collect up to 6 inches in total throughout the day.
By Monday the storm will be gone from the Great Lakes, but the mild effects will remain. Experts expect another clipper to affect cities like Chicago, a little further south, over the next week, although they did not provide further details.
“ There may be more opportunities for snow around Chicago and other parts of the Upper Midwest with additional clipper storms on the horizon through the middle of next week, “said Alex Sosnowski of AccuWeather.
