We haven't had snow on the ground in Kalamazoo for the last 8 months.  That's expected to change tomorrow (Thursday, November 2024.)  To be clear, getting snow accumulation a week before Thanksgiving in Southwest Michigan is not rare.  In fact, this is right on time.  On average, Kalamazoo usually gets about an inch of accumulation around November 17th for its first snow according to data collected by Western Michigan University.
