...Synoptic and mesoscale conditions on December 11th and 12th...An unseasonably cold arctic airmass spilling southward out of southern Canada on the 10th combined with a very strong upper level disturbance and upper level jet of 160 knots came together over the Midwest early on the 11th.  Surface low pressure developed over Oklahoma early on the 11th and rapidly deepened as it lifted northeastward into central Indiana by late afternoon.

A low pressure system slowly moved across the northern Great Lakes region during the evening of the 19th.  Southwest winds off of Lake Michigan caused lake enhanced snow to develop across northwest Lower Michigan.  These snows persisted through the night.  By morning, 12 hour snowfall totals were in excess of 6 inches across northern Manistee, northern Wexford, southern Leelanau and all of Benzie and Grand Traverse counties.  The heaviest snowfall occurred across Grand Traverse and western Benzie  counties, where 8 to 12 inches had fallen by morning.During the day on the 20th, the low pressure system moved east of the region.  North to northwest winds on the back site of this low brought cold arctic air to the region.  This caused a prolonged period of lake effect snow across northwest Lower Michigan.  By the early morning hours on the 21st, 24 hour snowfall totals ranged from 10 to 15 inches across portions of Leelanau, Benzie, Grand Traverse, Wexford, Antrim, Kalkaska and Missaukee counties.  During the day on the 21st, lake effect snows pushed farther inland across northwest Lower Michigan.  By the evening of the 21st, 12 hour snowfall amounts totaled 8 to 10 inches across much of Antrim and northern Kalkaska counties (these areas had received 20 to 25 inches of snowfall in the 48 hour period ending on the the evening of the 21st).  Isolated heavy lake effect snow showers had also produced 8 hour snowfall amounts of 6 to 7 inches across southern Cheboygan county as well as up to 8 inches in localized areas across northern Chippewa county.  Late in the evening through the early morning hours of the the 22nd, around 6 inches of additional snow also fell across Charlevoix and Otsego counties.  During the day on the 22nd, the heavy lake effect snows had come to an end.

During the early morning hours of December 14th, a low pressure system over the Ohio Valley weakened, while a new low developed along the mid Atlantic coast. This new low tracked northeast toward southern New England by the late morning on December 14th. To the northwest of this low pressure center, a narrow swath of freezing rain and sleet fell, as warm, moist air was lifted over a pre-existing colder airmass. This mixture of freezing rain and sleet created treacherous travel for the morning commute on December 14th.  In addition, power outages resulted as tree limbs fell due to significant ice accretion.  Ice accumulated at least one quarter inch throughout the area, with some locations receiving up to one half inch of ice.
