With a blizzard warning in effect and a powerful winter storm moving through Michigan, Governor Gretchen Whitmer has activated the State Emergency Operations Center as of 1 p.m. Friday.
Winter in Michigan has only just begun. With record snowfall expected in the coming days, Michiganders wonder whether snow chains are legal on state roadways.
After this storm, while perusing the PureUP Facebook group, I came across these beautiful photos from a photographer named Laura Maynard. A Marquette native, she moved to the U.P. from Wisconsin at age 5 and never left.
So far, the forecast says that we could see a big snowstorm come through Michigan next week. However, this is Michigan, and weather can change on a dime...so we'll see if we get a snow storm or snow flurries.
