A low pressure system quickly intensified over the weekend of February 23-24th, as it crossed the Great Lakes region.  This system brought blizzard warnings to western portions of the Great Lakes to high winds across the rest of the region.  A well-mixed boundary layer led to high winds over the region, with gusts around 60 mph range. Widespread downed tree limbs with sporadic structural damage reported. One such report was roof damage at Adrian College. Downed power lines led to close to 200,000 customers without power across southeast Michigan, with some of outages lasting into Monday.
