The wider storm

A major winter storm moved into Lower Michigan on February 24 producing heavy wet snow. This snow continued into the morning hours of February 25 before ending. Total accumulations for many locations ranged from 6 to 14. This caused some strain on trees with the wet snow weighing down branches, causing some scattered power outages across the region. Also, many schools and even state government offices were closed during this storm. Interstates were in better shape compared to some state highways and other secondary roads, which in many cases were snow packed and treacherous.
