The entire lower peninsula and part of the UP is under a winter weather advisory with anywhere from two to five more inches of snow expected, depending on where you are.  My area is in the 2-3 inch range.  Temperatures have cooled off dramatically so what snow we get won’t be going anywhere soon.  At least we aren’t getting any major storms or arctic blasts, at least not yet.  The major issue here in Michigan is water levels in the great lakes.  So many living on the shorelines are actually losing their homes to shore erosion.  It has become a real concern.
