Episodes

January 17, 2006

An area of low pressure moved northeast across southeast Lower Michigan on the 17th. This system spread wintry precipitation across all of northern Michigan. Most places saw a transition from light freezing rain, to sleet, to snow, without heavy accumulations of either snow or ice. There was enough ice on area roads and power lines to contribute to some accidents and power outages. An indirect fatality occurred when a car slid off an Alpena County road, striking a tree and claiming the life of the driver.Along the northwest edge of the precipitation shield, the event produced mostly snow. Six to eight inches of snow fell from around Honor, northward across most of Leelanau County.
