Unprecedented May Snowstorms Hit Michigan and Wisconsin

Unusually cold storm over the Northeast has led to historic May snowfall in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, with up to two feet of snowfall since Sunday night. Winter storm warnings persist in Michigan and the mountains of West Virginia. The Northeast quadrant of the Lower 48 is experiencing a stuck out-of-season pattern known as an Omega block, with stormy low pressure over the Northeast, calm high pressure over the Rockies region, and another stormy low pressure near California. The heavy snow has led to numerous power outages and dangerous travel in the hardest hit spots.
