Though spring is only about five weeks away, make no mistake, winter is in no hurry to leave.
The National Weather Service predicts snowfall of as much as eight inches in Metro Detroit by Tuesday, coming in two phases.
On Monday, the service predicts accumulations of one to two inches, followed by a break when the snow diminishes to flurries or stops in the afternoon.
It is then expected to resume Monday evening and bring from three to six inches by Tuesday afternoon.
