Not much significant cold headed for west Michigan. Everything above ZERO.
But the "Lake Effect" routine is somewhat confusing to those not familiar with it.
Our weather comes across Lake Michigan which is at this time is not frozen over. The Arctic cold weather out of Minnesota and Wisconsin is actually warmed by the not frozen water of Lake Michigan. As this air passes over land on our side it usually dumps a lot of snow along the lakeshore from the waters edge to about 25 miles inland.
So we actually see a considerable larger amount of snow than inland, but we are somewhat sheltered by the extreme cold conditions.
Don't know if that makes any sense or not---
but HEY I'm a BBQ smoker, not a meteorologist .
