UPDATED: Town-by-Town Mid-Michigan Snowfall Predictions for April 3-4
Here we snow again? Maybe not.
After a relatively mild winter as far as the calendar was concerned, Mother Nature continues to tease us with a few early April snowflakes.
Forecasters are focused on a storm system that could bring parts of Michigan some light snow accumulations Wednesday and Thursday, but as usual, there's disagreement among them as to how much (if any) snow the region will actually get.
What AccuWeather Is Saying
For the most part, AccuWeather meteorologists have backed off of thinking some parts of Mid-Michigan could see as much as three inches of snow through Thursday. They are still holding out the possibility for lighter accumulations in some areas.

They're still predicting places like Howell and Marshall might not see any significant accumulation at all.
What the National Weather Service Is Saying
The National Weather Service now thinks a few of us may see up to a tenth of an inch at best, with most locations expecting little to no snow at all during this event. NWS forecasters believe we're probably more likely in for a cold off-and-on rain in most places, with a few wet snowflakes mixed in.
What Local TV Meteorologists Are Saying
WILX News 10 Chief Meteorologist Darrin Rockcole doesn't think this one's likely to be a big deal either:
We see widely scattered rain showers and it may be just cold enough for a few snowflakes in the mix, too.
So, how much snow can your town expect? We compare the official forecasts from AccuWeather and the National Weather Service for nearly three dozen Mid-Michigan localities below.
