Michigan's Unique Lake-Effect Snow: A Stunning Winter Wonderland

Lake-effect snow showers have been impacting Michigan, with satellite imagery showing bands of snow showers moving southeast. The movement and intensity of the bands depend on wind direction and the size of the "fetch" of the lake. Currently, smaller bands are forming over Lake Michigan, resulting in lighter snowfall. The formation of lake-effect clouds is influenced by the warming of air over the lake. Other weather phenomena, such as snowfall on the ground and higher clouds, can also be observed in the satellite imagery. Michigan's unique combination of weather and land features makes it unlike anywhere else in the world.
