Rare snow doughnuts, a unique phenomenon, appear in Michigan backyard

As Michigan was whipped with winter weather and lake-effect snows Wednesday, Paw Paw residents Janice and Eric Pantelleria went outside to find some unusual lawn ornaments: dozens upon dozens of nicely rolled-up snow doughnuts or cylinders across their large lawn.

The snowy rollers are a somewhat unusual weather phenomenon, said Megan Varcie, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in White Lake.

"You had this kind of heavy, sticky snow coming off the lake that packed together well, combined with heavy winds — West Michigan had wind gusts upward of 40 mph," she said. "In those conditions, these cylindrical snow rolls can form, especially in open areas without trees."

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists
