With all the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, relaxation may seem out of reach, but a new local business in Marquette has just the answer. The world today is full of distractions that are pulling us this way and that, but what if you could unplug and turn down the volume of your busy life? What if you could shut out all the manic energy and noise that surrounds us each day? Say hello to float therapy—an enclosed capsule filled with body-temperature water that allows you to float weightlessly in total darkness. Peter Torelli, Co-owner of Aquapodics float therapy explains the experience. "When you're floating is pretty much like a weight-lifted experience, very calm, very relaxing, as if you're in a dark cave, just floating, just you and yourself," said Torelli.

The Upper Peninsula has seen significant lake-effect snow, especially in areas with a Northwest exposure to Lake Superior. 19 News spoke with the National Weather Service, about why some places received two feet of snow and others, less than an inch. Since Thanksgiving, the City of Munising has seen 24" of snow, while Marquette received less than an inch. According to Meteorologist Matt Zika with the National Weather Service, this past fall has been the warmest on record causing higher water temperatures, so when frigid air passes over that warm water it gets absorbed by the system and falls as snow once it makes landfall. "And with the pattern set up with this cold air over the record warm waters, it just sets up the machine to where it was just dumping snow in areas favored by northwesterly winds," said Zika.
