Good Monday morning!  Storm Tracker 4 is keeping a close eye and handle on rain and snow showers moving closer and closer to Metro Detroit but we start the early morning hours on the dry side with mid 30s as you head out with a lighter wind SE 5-10mph which will pick up later today.  The timing is everything for the wet weather because it’s cool enough over SE Lower Michigan and Southern Ontario for some snow to mix with rain in the leading edge of the Monday showers. Expect a rain/snow mix by about 6 a.m. switching to rain later in the morning and this could be mainly rain for some as it moves through here. Snow will want to stick to your car, to grassy surfaces, but it will struggle to stick to the streets especially with most of our area near or above freezing. Parts of our West and South Zones may get into the action before 6 a.m., but most of us see more trouble coming around or just after 6 a.m., as the mix will be trending to the rain category with snow showers likely lingering north of M 59.

Mostly cloudy skies are expected Sunday night as temperatures drop into the middle 30s. Outside of the metro zone, some spots will be in the lower 30s.

The lost ship of Ernest Shackleton, the British-Irish polar explorer who attempted and failed to become the first person to cross Antarctica via the South Pole between 1914 and 1916, has been found over a century after it sank due to Antarctic ice. The wooden vessel, called Endurance, was lost in November 1915 after it was crushed by ice and eventually sank, according to the Associated Press. In an interesting coincidence, according to British historian and broadcaster Dan Snow, who accompanied the expedition to find the ship, said that Endurance was found 100 years to the day Shackleton was buried. Commenting on the weather, he stated that astronomical conditions accounted for the mild winter along the Atlantic coast.
