| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Blizzard conditions developed across lower Michigan the morning of January 2nd, and continued through the afternoon, out ahead of an intensifying low pressure area over the western Tennessee Valley. East to southeast winds ahead of the system increased through the morning hours, and by noon winds had gusted up to 65 mph in Muskegon in Muskegon County. Wind gusts of 45 to 60 mph were common across all of southern lower Michigan through the afternoon hours, causing blowing and drifting snow and whiteout conditions at times. By the late evening hours of the 2nd, 6 to 12 inches of snow had already fallen across all of southwest and west central lower Michigan. |
