Michigan’s winter weather for the 2024-2025 season is expected to be colder and snowier than average, according to the National Weather Service. The average temperature for the winter months is expected to be 25 degrees Fahrenheit, which is 3 degrees below normal. The average snowfall for the winter months is expected to be 60 inches, which is 10 inches above normal.
The cold and snowy weather is expected to be caused by a combination of factors, including a strong polar vortex and a weak El Nio. The polar vortex is a large area of low pressure that forms over the North Pole during the winter months. When the polar vortex is strong, it can send cold air southward into the United States. El Nio is a climate pattern that causes the Pacific Ocean to warm, which can lead to changes in weather patterns around the world. A weak El Nio is expected to develop during the winter of 2024-2025, which could contribute to the colder and snowier weather in Michigan.
