Overview

A low pressure system moved across the northern Great Lakes on Monday, February 8th. This low stalled over southern Lake Huron during the early morning hours of February 9, strengthening as it did so. Snow showers with embedded heavier squalls tracked southward through Southeast Michigan overnight with mainly 1-4" by 7 am. The low continued to only slowly drift eastward, resulting in a long period of snowfall throughout the day. The Thumb was the hardest-hit by this activity, with 8-12" widespread across the region. The heaviest amounts occurred in Huron county and in a band over northwest Tuscola and western Sanilac Counties.
