KALAMAZOO, Mich. — A winter storm warning is set to be issued in West Michigan starting Saturday at 7 a.m.
According to the National Weather Service, heavy snow is expected over the weekend, with total snow accumulations amounting to between 6-10 inches.
Roads, including bridges and overpasses, will most likely become slick and hazardous, and visibility could drop below a fourth of a mile due to falling snow, the National Weather Service detailed online.
The heaviest snow and worst travel conditions are expected Saturday afternoon and Saturday night.
“Persons should delay all travel if possible,” meteorologists wrote. “If travel is absolutely necessary, drive with extreme caution and be prepared for sudden changes in visibility. Leave plenty of room between you and the motorist ahead of you, and allow extra time to reach your destination. Avoid sudden braking or acceleration, and be especially cautious on hills or when making turns. Make sure your car is winterized and in good working order.”
