I semi-remember that day. IIRC we got 6-8 inches in detroit... nothing compared to the New years eve/day blizzard (1998-2000 i don't exactly remember) when we got 14-20" in 5 hours. I was snowed in at my ex-girlfriends parents house that night.

What I desribed earlier is actually called "industrial snow". Unfortunately I couldn't find an english article on the subject but german speaking folks may look at this page describing the phenomenon as experienced in Linz.
