FOR MORE THAN $12,000 IN PROFIT SHARING AND $9000. FOR FORD WORKERS. ALL RIGHT. WELL, LET’S
GET BACK TO THE WEATHER THAT
WE’RE FOLLOWING ALL DAY. KIM
ADAMS JOINS US NOW HERE AND I
FEEL WE WERE IN THIS CRITICAL
ZONE. I THINK OF TIMING WISE,
WHERE THE TEMPERATURES DROPPING
A BIT. YES AND SUNSETS AT 6 13
TONIGHT, AND THAT’S WHEN WE
MIGHT SEE A BRIEF DIP IN THE
TEMPS BEFORE THEY KIND OF START
TO RISE BACK UP AGAIN WITH A
WARM FRONT. SO, UM, THAT’S WHAT
WE’RE MOST CONCERNED IS THAT
THAT LITTLE EVEN JUST TWO OR
THREE DEGREES CAN MAKE A HUGE
DIFFERENCE. WE HAVE HAD AN
UPDATE FROM THE NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE JUST WITHIN THE LAST 15
MINUTES. THEY HAVE EXTENDED THE
WINTER WEATHER ADVISE. I DON’T
KNOW IF WE CAN DROP THAT BANNER
SO THAT YOU CAN SEE IT. WE HAVE.
THANK YOU. THEY HAVE EXTENDED IT
FOR WAYNE AND MONROE COUNTIES.
IT’S A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY.
IT WAS SET TO EXPIRE AT EIGHT PM
NOW SET TO EXPIRE AT 10. PM THEN
WHAT YOU SEE IN PURPLE. STILL
THAT ICE STORM WARNING THAT
CONTINUES UNTIL FOUR A.M.
THURSDAY AND A HEAVY SNOW WINTER
STORM WARNING UP FOR PARTS OF
THE THUMB ANYWHERE YOU SEE,
SHADED IN PINK. THAT IS A WINTER
STORM WARNING. SO THIS IS THE
AREA THAT WE’RE CONCERNED ABOUT
SNOW THAN ICE AND THEN A MIX OF
THE TWO SO WE’RE NOT QUITE DONE
YET, AND A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE
SAYING WELL, IT’S JUST RAINING
WHILE FREEZING RAIN. IS RAIN
COMES DOWN AS RAIN. THE CONCERN
IS THAT IT WILL FREEZE ON
SURFACES. THAT’S WHEN IT BECOMES
FREEZING RAIN AND WE HAVE SEEN
THAT ESPECIALLY AS WE EXPECTED
OUT TO THE WEST, AS OPPOSED TO
THE EAST SIDE. SO THE ANN ARBOR
AREA RIGHT NOW GETTING SOME
PRETTY HEAVY, FREEZING RAIN AND
EXTENDS UP INTO PARTS OF WESTERN
OAKLAND COUNTY, AND CERTAINLY
LIVINGSTON COUNTY AS WELL AND
THEN THE BLUE THAT YOU SEE TO
THE NORTH. NOW THAT IS SNOW, SO
LET’S GO IN JUST A LITTLE BIT
CLOSER AND SOME OF THE AREAS
THAT WE’VE SEEN THE HEAVIEST OF
THE PRECEPT THIS AFTERNOON,
INCLUDING ANN ARBOR, CANTON.
LIVONIA FARMINGTON HILLS. YOU
SAW BRANDON OUT OF THE AIRPORT
ALONG TO 75. THEY’RE JUST
GETTING RAIN AT THIS HOUR, BUT
VERY CLOSE TO THAT FREEZING
RAIN, BUT MOST OF IT IS NOW OUT
TO THE WEST AND THE NORTHWEST
HOWELL ALONG I 96 BRIGHTEN
GETTING FREEZING, ESPECIALLY ON
THE TREES AND THE SIDE STREETS.
THEY DID TREAT THE MAIN ROADS.
WE FOCUSED A LOT ON THE MAIN
ROAD SO IT MAY APPEAR THAT
EVERYTHING IS FINE. BUT THOSE
SIDE STREETS, SIDEWALKS,
DRIVEWAYS, PARKING LOTS,
ESPECIALLY ARE STILL COVERED
WITH FREEZING RAIN AND ICE.
WE’VE TALKED A LOT ABOUT
DIFFERENT FREEWAYS, BUT YOU
MIGHT NOT KNOW. DO I LIVE NORTH
OF 69 SOUTH OF IT? LET ME SHOW
YOU HERE. ALRIGHT, THE BIGGEST
IMPACTS FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND
THIS EVENING HEAVY SNOW UP TO
THE NORTH. HERE’S 69. ANYTHING
NORTH OF THAT WILL MOSTLY BE ALL
SNOW BETWEEN I 69 END 59 A MIX
OF THE TWO NOW SOUTH OF THAT
SOUTH OF M 59 WILL GET QUITE A
BIT OF RAIN. BUT AT TIMES,
FREEZING RAIN WILL BECOME A
PROBLEM AS WELL. ANYWAY. YOU SEE
HERE IN PURPLE AND THEN AGAIN
THIS BANNER IF YOU CAN DROP IT
JUST FOR A SECOND, I CAN SHOW
YOU WHERE THERE’LL BE SOME HEAVY
RAIN RIGHT ALONG THE OHIO BORDER
IN PARTS OF MONROE COUNTY, MAYBE
EVEN SOME RUMBLES OF THUNDER AS
WELL. TREATING FOR THE THREAT
FOR ICY ROADS. WELL, THEY’VE
BEEN OUT THERE TREATING THE
ROADWAYS AND THAT’S GOOD, BUT WE
DO HAVE A CONCERN FOR BLACK ICE
AND THE FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET
COULD BOTH CAUSE PROBLEMS ON THE
ROAD. SO KEEP YOUR STEERING
WHEEL STRAIGHT. DO NOT BREAK AND
TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE
ACCELERATOR AND SLOW DOWN. I
KNOW WE HAVE THAT. YOU KNOW THAT
INSTINCT WHERE WE JUST WANT TO
SLAM ON THE BRAKES, BUT THAT’S
NOT WHAT YOU SHOULD DO IN EITHER
CONDITION AGAIN. THE MAIN ROADS
SEEM TO BE A PRETTY GOOD SHAPE.
WE’RE WATCHING TEMPS VERY
CLOSELY THERE ON EITHER SIDE OF
FREEZING AT THIS HOUR WIND IS
ANOTHER CONCERN. WE’VE TALKED
ABOUT THAT 32 MILE PER HOUR
GUSTS AT METRO AIRPORT. WE
EXPECT THE WINDS TO CONTINUE TO
BE STRONG THROUGHOUT THE EVENING
. ICE WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD UP.
AS I SAID MORE SO ON THE WEST
SIDE THAN ON THE EAST SIDE,
CLOUDS AND RADAR FORECAST AS WE
GO THROUGH TIME, WEDNESDAY, NINE
O’CLOCK WE’RE STILL SEEING
FREEZING RAIN AND ALSO HEAVY
RAIN, ALL RAIN. IN MONROE
COUNTY, BUT IT WILL BE GONE
AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. SO YOUR
FORECAST FOR TONIGHT 28 DEGREES
WITH ICY CONDITIONS. DAYTIME
TOMORROW. 45 IN THE AFTERNOON.
SO ANYTHING WE GET TODAY WILL
MELT EVEN ON THOSE TREES, AND
THAT’S A GOOD THING, BUT IT WILL
BE BREEZY TOMORROW WITH A FEW
STRAY SNOW FLURRIES ON FRIDAY
AND A COLD AIR MASS BRIEFLY
FRIDAY AND THEN WE WARM BACK UP
OVER THE WEEKEND, SO LOTS GOING
ON, AND IT’S HARD TO PINPOINT
EXACTLY EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD. SO
THE BEST WAY TO DO THAT IS BY
DOWNLOADING OUR 4WARN WEATHER
APP. YOU CAN TYPE IN YOUR
NEIGHBORHOOD AND YOU WILL GET A
CUSTOMIZABLE FORECAST. ANYTIME
