Could Lapeer County Get More Snow in 2023?

Sometimes, if you don't think you'll like the answer, you shouldn't ask the question.

Here are three 'late snowfalls' in Lapeer County that had some significant late season impacts in history.

On May 9th, 1923, a whopping 6-inches of snow covered the S.E. corner of Lapeer County. I'm guessing the kids loved it. The adults, probably not so much.
