LANSING, Mich. — Several large school districts in Mid-Michigan have announced closures for Thursday due to the anticipated winter weather. Among the districts closing their doors are Lansing School District, Grand Ledge Public Schools, and Waverly Community Schools, in response to a Winter Weather Advisory issued by the National Weather Service.
The advisory remains in effect until Thursday morning, warning residents of heavy snow and dangerous driving conditions. Accumulations are expected to range between 3-6 inches, with some areas potentially seeing higher amounts. The snow is likely to decrease visibility, making travel hazardous for commuters and drivers throughout the region.
While the heaviest snowfall is expected to subside by Thursday morning, scattered lake-effect snow showers may persist throughout the day, further complicating conditions on the roads. In addition to school closures, several daycares and facilities have also suspended operations for the day.
With the snow expected to clear by Thursday evening, attention turns to the weekend, where additional snow may impact the area. Residents are encouraged to monitor weather updates and exercise caution when traveling, as conditions remain unpredictable throughout the week.
For a complete list of closures, residents are advised to visit their local school district or news outlets for the most current information.
