Overview

A winter storm brought heavy, wet snow to southern Lower Michigan from the afternoon of March 3 into early March 4, 2023. This storm produced a swath of 6"-10" from Kalamazoo/Battle Creek east toward Lansing and Jackson, then extending into the Thumb Region. The weight of the snow on trees and power lines led to around 350,000 power outages across southeast sections of the state.
