Many school districts have closed Thursday, Jan. 23, as snowfall continues - particularly along the lakeshore - in a weeklong winter storm.

While temperatures are rising and we're on our way out of the sub-zero temperatures we saw earlier this week, the snow still won't quit.

Just as this bitterly cold airmass starts to move out of Michigan on Wednesday, snowfall is expected to re-intensify across part of Michigan. This could lead to as much as 6 inches of new snow across some areas that already have been hard-hit by lake-effect snow in the last couple of weeks, the National Weather Service (NWS) said.

With widespread school closings in West Michigan this week, some districts have now seen a half dozen or more snow days this school year.
