Marquette, MI – October 18, 2022 – A Winter Storm Warning remains in effect for Marquette and Baraga counties until 8:00 p.m. today. The National Weather Service is calling for heavy, wet snow will continue today, mainly inland from Lake Superior, creating poor travel conditions.
Accumulations of 3 to 6 inches are expected in the higher terrain a few miles inland from Lake Superior. Near the shoreline, little or no snow accumulation will occur due to a rain and snow mix.
