A band of lake effect snow is expected to pivot eastward around southern Lake Michigan between daybreak and noon central time today. As the band shifts eastward, snow rates of 1 inch per hour may allow for snow to stick to untreated roadways as well as bridges and overpasses. Total snow accumulations of 1 to 3 inches are expected, though locally higher amounts cannot be ruled out. If you encounter the band of lake effect snow, travel at safe speeds and keep adequate distances between you and the car in front of you. Intense lake effect snow is expected tonight and Monday. A Winter Storm Warning goes into effect for Lake and Porter counties at 10 PM CT. A Winter Weather Advisory goes into effect for Jasper and Newton counties at 12 AM CT. Both products will remain in effect through 6 PM Monday. $$ Borchardt
