Follow along throughout the day as we track the weather and any Lansing area impacts here.
10:10 a.m.: Wednesday’s weather is expected to be a bit of repeat of Sunday’s damaging storms that swept across the Lansing area, although likely with more rain and a bit of snow mixed in.
Light snow overnight Tuesday was expected to turn to rain as temperatures warm throughout the day Wednesday from from the low 30s to the mid-60s by the afternoon.
That dramatic temperature change means thunderstorms are possible throughout the day on Wednesday, and some could be severe.
Thunderstorms were moving through the area before 10 a.m. but more severe storms were possible later in the day.
The highest risk of severe storms will be near and south of Interstate 96, forecasters said. Tornadoes, four of which touched down in Ingham and Ionia counties Sunday, are also possible.
Sunday’s storms spawned vicious straight-line winds and at least three tornadoes, including an EF-1 twister near Williamston and an EF-0 tornado near Leslie. The weather service on Tuesday also confirmed that an EF-0 tornado touched down east of Grant in Newaygo County.
A 56-year-old man was killed when a tree fell on a house in Stockbridge Township on Sunday, Ingham County Sheriff Scott Wriggelsworth said.
