MLive chief meteorologist Mark Torregrossa was off last week. Maybe he would have helped us not freak out about the late April snowstorm that was supposed to hit over the weekend. Thankfully, he's back to spell out just where all the rain in this week's forecast is coming from.

Unfortunately, we can't spend all of our time at Michigan's beautiful state parks. For those times when you have to return to work or home, you can soon bring the sounds of those wonderful parks with you. That's thanks to a new album from Pure Michigan that features sounds recorded at 10 state parks. You can take a listen to two of the tracks right now before the album is released in full on May 22.
