| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A winter storm tracked south of Michigan's Lower Peninsula during the afternoon and evening hours of Friday, March 20th and into the early morning hours of Saturday, March 21st. The low pressure center tracked across Kentucky and into northern Virginia, keeping the most significant precipitation south of the state. A mixture of snow, sleet, and freezing rain fell across much of southwest and south central Lower Michigan, mainly south of a line from South Haven to Lansing, MI. The precipitation started out as a mixture of sleet and freezing rain Friday afternoon, then turned to mostly snow Friday evening. The ice at the onset made travel conditions hazardous for the Friday afternoon rush hour and several minor weather-related accidents were reported along and south of the Interstate-94 corridor. Snow accumulations ranged from 1 to 4 inches in the aforementioned counties. Accumulations of 3 to 4 inches were confined to southern Berrien County, Cass County, Jackson County, and southeast Ingham County. |
