The winter storm that’s heading our way may just a few days before Christmas may likely impact your holiday travel plans, as well as your farm operations for the next several days.
“The blowing snow, the visibility and the drifting – that is what’s going to be an issue,” says Michigan Ag Today’s Chief Meteorologist Ryan Martin. He says the arctic front that’s bringing the winter storm with it should arrive in Michigan during the overnight on Thursday night into Friday morning.
Martin says wind gusts may reach as high as 55 miles per hour through the afternoon of Christmas Eve on Saturday – with winds continuing to create blowing and drifting snow through Monday morning.
