HOUGHTON — After a reprieve of several days, winter is making a late-season comeback.

As of 4 p.m. Friday, snow totals in the past 24 hours included 6.2 inches in Painesdale and 3.8 inches at the top of Quincy Hill, said Don Rolfson, meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Negaunee.

Over the past few days, the Upper Peninsula has been dealing with a low-pressure system moving from the northern Great Plains into northern Ontario.

Another inch or two is forecast for Friday night, followed by more than an inch Saturday, Rolfson said.

“Between the snow showers and the sun, it’ll be accumulating a bit and then melting,” he said. The snows and wind forced Michigan Technological University’s Spring Fling event Friday to move indoors to the Student Development Complex.

Another system coming through could deposit at least 2 inches Sunday night and Monday, Rolfson said.

“Eventually, it’ll warm up and stay warm,” he said.

The snow may be unwelcome, but it’s not that unusual, Rolfson said. He recalled storms in past years that have deposited a foot of snow as late as April 30. Another storm dumped 8 to 12 inches across much of the upper Peninsula several years ago, he said.
