FOX 2, Southfield, Mich.has been difficult to find for the majority of Metro Detroit in southeast Michigan, but that is all about to change on Friday as the entire region is under police control.

Although the system isn’t strong enough to warrant a warning, the winter weather advisory was issued early Friday morning to warn people before the snow fell.

How much snow in Metro Detroit?

Based on the figures:

On Friday, the snowfall will begin at 1 p.m. and last for around 12 hours. Around 3 or 4 p.m., it will be at its heaviest, which would cause chaos on the way home.

Although some locations may receive up to four inches of snow, we anticipate the whole area receiving two to three inches. Although this isn’t a lot of snow, it’s the first good snowmaker of the season because we haven’t seen much.

There will be snow in Metro Detroit soon. Around two to three inches will fall in Southeast Michigan over the course of the weekend once it arrives on Friday.

Metro Detroit would have received more than 14 inches overall on average. Only six inches of snow have fallen so far.
