WIMI (99.7 FM, "The Storm") is a radio station broadcasting a Classic Rock format. Licensed to Ironwood, Michigan, it first began broadcasting in 1974, with its signal covering most of the western Upper Peninsula and the extreme northern portion of Wisconsin; because of the effects of tropospheric ducting, it is also easily heard across Lake Superior in Duluth, Minnesota to the point that in 2017, it asked the FCC to move a recently launched VCY America translator on 99.7 in Duluth to move dial positions due to crossover interference (it moved to 97.7).

Initially, the Station ran Drake-Chenault's "Hitparade" Format (later Contempo 300), using Drake programming well into the 80's, and eventually morphing into an Adult Hits format. In 2017, the station switched from a variety AC format to all classic rock. Local personalities include Bill Swift, and Sam Erspamer.
