West Michigan Beach in Winter

Pictured is a snow fence to keep sand and snow from blowing across the road.  Fierce winter winds whip the snow and snow plows try to keep up with clearing the roads.  There is so much snow today that school was cancelled in many areas of West Michigan.

Great Lakes Weather

A snow storm on the lakeshore is making driving difficult.  We are having lake effect snow that is blowing in from across Lake Michigan.  Moisture picked up from Lake Michigan increases snow fall.

Pictured is a snow fence on the beach that should prevent snow from blowing across the road.  We have had very little snow this winter and the snow storm on Feb. 24 is letting us know it is still winter   One day last month we had enough snow to ski on so I went out on my cross country skis.  My skis are still in the trunk of my car and all I got was one day of skiing.  Looks like I might be able to ski again.
