Winter Water Drops by Superior Seasons
The folks at Michigan Storm Chasers share a detailed statewide Michigan weather forecast every morning that you should definitely incorporate into your daily feed. On Facebook they share that although we will see temps above freezing for most of the state, even topping 50 degrees in southern Michigan, temps will drop later in the day, potentially precipitously in what is known as a “flash freeze”. A flash freeze happens when rain has fallen, completely stopped, and then shortly afterward air temperatures drop from the 40s or 50s down into the 20s or colder. Ryan explains is all in their excellent video.
Michael shared this photo 13 years & one day ago on December 17, 2012, remarking that it was strange to see rain in December in the UP. Here are a couple more he shared to our Absolute Michigan group on Flickr, and you can see more in his The UP Eh! gallery.
Since the storm began, power has been restored to over 56,000 members.
Just over 45,000 Great Lakes Energy (GLE) members remain without power this morning across 15 of our 26 counties.
Unfortunately, a new storm system hit our southern territory late yesterday, causing additional damage and compounding restoration challenges.
