COMMERCE TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) - Southeastern Michigan residents are making the best of the region's first big snowstorm of the season, which peaked during the evening rush hour and snarled road traffic and air travel.
The fringe of the storm pushed into populous metropolitan Detroit on Wednesday afternoon, and the National Weather Service says it should taper off Thursday.
Snowfalls were topping half a foot by late Wednesday, with 6.5 inches already on the ground in Ann Arbor.
At least 100 flights Detroit Metropolitan Airport were cancelled or rerouted and 240 others delayed by an hour or more Wednesday.
