STARTS NOW. AND WE ARE TRACKING MORE SNOW TO START US OFF HERE AT NOON. IT IS COMING INTO WAVES
, AND THE FIRST IS JUST A FEW
HOURS AWAY. GOOD AFTERNOON AND
THANKS SO MUCH FOR JOINING ME.
I’M KRISTY MCDONALD. THE WEEKEND
BEGINS WITH A FRESH COATING OF
SNOW AFTER OUR FIRST BIG
SNOWFALL OF THE SEASON. JUST A
COUPLE OF DAYS AGO, FORWARD
METEOROLOGISTS. ACTUALLY BARRIS
IS HERE TO TRACK IT ALL FOR US
ON A FRIDAY. HEY, ASHLEY,
CHRISTIE. AND HEY, WE GOT A
LITTLE BIT OF SUNSHINE EARLY
THIS AFTERNOON. AS YOU CAN SEE,
WE HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF CLEARING
WITH SATELLITE. BUT THOSE CLOUDS
ARE STARTING TO BECOME A LITTLE
MORE WIDESPREAD THROUGHOUT
SOUTHEASTERN MICHIGAN AHEAD OF
THE CLIPPER SYSTEM THAT WILL BE
MAKING ITS WAY ACROSS METRO
DETROIT LATER THIS AFTERNOON.
HEADING INTO THE EVENING, SO THE
SNOW SHOWERS CURRENTLY PASSING
LAKE MICHIGAN RIGHT NOW AND
GETTING INTO THAT VERY FAR
WESTERN EDGE OF LOWER MICHIGAN.
RIGHT NOW, WE SIT AT 24, THOUGH
THAT’S A HAIR MISLEADING BECAUSE
WITH WINDS OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST
, IT’S 16 MPH. IT FEELS MORE
LIKE 11 WITH THE WIND CHILL, AND
THERE ARE SEVERAL AREAS THAT
HAVE HAD SINGLE DIGIT WINDCHILLS
THROUGHOUT THE MORNING, SO
ACTUAL AIR TEMPERATURES ACROSS
THE STATE IN THE TWENTIES, BUT
THIS IS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE. NINE
DOWN IN ADRIENNE TENNANT,
JACKSON 11 AND HOW SAME HERE IN
THE CITY 15 OVER IN TROY. LET’S
GET TO YOUR FORECAST FOR TODAY
BECAUSE WE DO ANTICIPATE THOSE
HIGHS TO TAP OUT IN THE MID
THIRTIES. IT WILL BE A LITTLE
BIT LATER ON IN THE EVENING,
COMPARED TO WHERE WE NORMALLY
PEAK IN THE EARLY AFTERNOON. FEW
AFTERNOON FLURRIES ROLE IN
ESPECIALLY FOR THAT EVENING RUSH
HOUR DRIVE. YOU WANT TO MAKE
SURE THAT YOU GIVE YOURSELF A
LITTLE EXTRA TIME THIS EVENING
AS WE COULD SEE A FEW SLICK
SPOTS START TO DEVELOP FOR
TONIGHT. 26 DEGREES FOR THE
OVERNIGHT LOW IS THAT SNOW
BEGINS TO END. BUT COME TOMORROW
. SOME ACCUMULATING SNOW WILL
COME BACK IN THE FORECAST FOR
THE LATER PART OF THE DAY. GOING
INTO YOUR SUNDAY WELL TIME THAT
OUT IN A MINUTE, BUT IF YOU WANT
TO TIME OUT THE SNOW AND TAKE
RADAR ON THE GO WITH YOU PLEASE
MAKE SURE TO DOWNLOAD THE 4WARN
WEATHER APP. YOU CAN DOWNLOAD
THE APP IN YOUR APP STORE. IT’S
FASTER, EASIER, ACCURATE. AND
IT’S FREE CHRISTIE. SOUNDS GOOD,

AFTER SEVEN O’CLOCK TONIGHT, AND
PRESIDENT BIDEN AND THE FIRST
LADY HAVE ISSUED A STATEMENT
JOINING THE FAMILY AND CALLING
FOR PEACEFUL PROTESTS IN
REACTION TO THAT VIDEO IN
MEMPHIS, THE CITY OF DETROIT IS
LAUNCHING A NEW PROGRAM TO HELP
PEOPLE WHO ARE WITHOUT A JOB RE
ENTER THE WORKFORCE. THE CITY

PROVIDE TRAINING AND SUPPORT TO
DETROITERS, WHO HAVE BEEN
UNEMPLOYED FOR MORE THAN SIX
MONTHS. THE ORGANISATION’S WILL

IN THE ROMAN ROLLED IN THE
PROGRAMS CAN GET SCHOLARSHIPS TO
HELP THEM PAY FOR CHILDCARE AS
WELL OR TRANSPORTATION. IF
YOU’VE BEEN UNEMPLOYED FOR MORE
THAN SIX MONTHS. YOU NEED MORE
SCHOLARSHIP HELP, AND YOU NEED A
PARTNER. BECAUSE IT’S NOT ENOUGH
TO SAY THE PROGRAMS THERE. YOU
NEED A PARTNER TO HELP YOU WALK
THROUGH IT EVERY DAY. THIS IS
WHAT IT MEANS TO GO BACK TO
SCHOOL. YOU GOT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN

KEY HERE. THE MAYOR WILL BE

SHARP INCREASE IN PRICES. IT’S
SLOWING DOWN A REPORT TODAY OUT
OF THE COMMERCE DEPARTMENT SHOWS
PRICES ROAD 5% LAST MONTH FROM A
YEAR EARLIER, AND THAT’S DOWN
FROM 5.5% INCREASE BACK IN
NOVEMBER. IT IS THE THIRD
STRAIGHT DROP THE FEDERAL
RESERVE RAISED INTEREST RATES TO
COOL INFLATION SEVEN TIMES LAST
YEAR, MAY DO IT AGAIN NEXT WEEK
, AS SUSAN MCGINNIS REPORTS FROM
CAPITOL HILL, THE PRESIDENT IS
MAKING THE ECONOMY A TOP
PRIORITY. PRESIDENT BIDEN SPENT
MUCH OF THAT SPEECH TALKING UP
HIS ACHIEVEMENTS AS PRESIDENT,
SEEMINGLY SETTING HIMSELF UP FOR
REELECTION BID. AND HIS FIRST
MAJOR ECONOMIC ADDRESS OF THE
YEAR, PRESIDENT BIDEN TOUTING
HIS ADMINISTRATION’S
ACCOMPLISHMENTS ON THE RIGHT
TRACK. ROADS AND BRIDGES ARE
BEING BUILT. FACTORIES ARE
COMING. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE BACK
TO WORK BEFORE UNION WORKERS IN
SPRINGFIELD, VIRGINIA, JUST
AFTER NEW NUMBERS SHOWING BETTER
THAN EXPECTED ECONOMIC GROWTH,
THE PRESIDENT POINTING TO
UNEMPLOYMENT AT ITS LOWEST IN 50
YEARS, WE’VE HAD THE STRONGEST
YEARS OF JOB GROWTH EVER IN
AMERICAN HISTORY. BUT FAILING TO
MENTION STEEP LAYOFFS AT
COMPANIES, INCLUDING IBM, DOW,
GOOGLE, AMAZON AND MORE THE
PRESIDENT ON THE ATTACK, DRAWING
A STARK CONTRAST WITH
REPUBLICANS AGENDA. THEY WANT TO
CUT YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY
MEDICARE. NOW I’M JUST THE GOD’S
TRUTH. IT’S ALMOST UNBELIEVABLE
. EVERYTHING I CAN TO MAKE SURE
THERE’S NO CUTS IN MEDICARE.
SOCIAL SECURITY PRESIDENT BIDEN
ALSO ACCUSING REPUBLICANS OF
THREATENING TO PUSH THE ECONOMY
INTO CRISIS BY REFUSING TO RAISE
THE DEBT CEILING WHEN YOU RUN
OUT OF ROOM TO BORROW FUNDS, THE
FIRST THING YOU DO IS YOU LOOK
AT YOUR SPENDING HABITS YOU
DON’T SAY. GIVE ME MORE MONEY TO
BORROW, NOT LET ANYONE USE THE
FULL FAITH AND CREDIT OF THE
UNITED STATES AS A BARGAINING
SHIP. PRESIDENT BIDEN CASTING
HIMSELF AS A DEFENDER OF THE
MIDDLE CLASS AND SOUNDING MORE.
MORE AND MORE LIKE A
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE. AND
PRESIDENT BIDEN IS WEIGHING A
REELECTION BID. WE SHOULD FIND
OUT HIS DECISION AFTER THE STATE
OF THE UNION ADDRESS FEBRUARY
THE SEVENTH IN WASHINGTON, SUSAN
MCGINNIS BACK TO YOU. ALRIGHT
THANKS, SUSAN STILL TO COME HERE
AT NOON. COMEDIAN JAY LENO IS
BACK IN THE HOSPITAL AFTER
ANOTHER SERIOUS ACCIDENT. WHAT

FIRST FORD ISSUES OF RECALL OVER
SOMETHING THAT WON’T WORK IN
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF SUVS,
