Winter Storm January 24, 2014 – January 25, 2014 · Mackinac, Michigan

The wider storm

Snow broke out ahead of a clipper system on the 24th. Strong southwest winds off of Lake Michigan both enhanced the snowfall, and produced a considerable amount of blowing and drifting snow. Snowfall amounts topped out at 12 to 16 inches in much Leelanau, Benzie, and western Grand Traverse Counties, with lesser amounts elsewhere. Brief near-blizzard conditions were seen, mainly near Lake Michigan, where winds gusted to nearly 45 mph.
