Snow continues this morning, heaviest across the north central highlands. Snow will then quickly diminish this afternoon and will end most areas by late afternoon. Where the heaviest snow has fallen, travel will be very difficult this morning. Also, where snow has collected on trees, gusty winds this morning may still break tree limbs and cause additional power outages. With warmer weather ahead, melting snow will lead to water level rises on rivers and streams, creating the potential of more flooding... #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaHistoric late season snow storm ends today.

The next days will melt more snow, continuing substantial water level rises on rivers, streams, and other low-lying areas. Near the lakeshores, there will be substantial variability in temperatures based on wind direction, but most locations will warm into the 60s and 70s the next few days.
