AS CORONAVIRUS CASE COUNTS HIT A
PLATEAU, THE GOVERNOR MAKES
CHANGES IN THE LATEST EXECUTIVE
ORDER.
ORDER. >> Shawn: IT’S A BIG WEEKEND
BECAUSE PEOPLE CAN DO QUITE A
FEW THINGS LIKE HIT THE LAWN AND
GARDEN STORES AND WORK THEIR
YARDS FOR THE FIRST TIME.
IF YOU DON’T REALLY DO IT
YOURSELF, LAWN AND LANDSCAPING
SERVICES CAN NOW OPERATE AGAIN
AND FIRE UP RIGHT AWAY AS LONG
AS THEY FOLLOW SOCIAL DISTANCING
GUIDELINES.
GUIDELINES. >> Priya: STARTING MAY 1st GOLF
IS ALSO GETTING THE GREEN LIGHT,

UNFORTUNATELY, I’M WORKING THIS
WEEKEND, BUT I’LL HAVE TIME
DURING THE WEEK NEXT WEEK.
TEMPERATURES RIGHT NOW, THERE’S
QUITE A DIFFERENCE ACROSS THE
AREA.
AREA. UP IN THE THUMB YOU’RE NEAR 30
DEGREES.
DEGREES. DOWN IN LENAWEE COUNTY, IT IS IN
THE LOW 40s RIGHT NOW.
THAT’S JUST BECAUSE OF THE
ADVANCING CLOUD COVER.
AS FAR AS RAIN GOES, THERE IS NO
RAIN IN THE AREA RIGHT NOW.
IT’S A DRY START TO THE DAY, AND
MANY OF US TO THE NORTH AND
NORTHEAST ARE GETTING SOME
SUNSHINE.
SUNSHINE. YOU CAN SEE THERE IS SOME RAIN.
WE’VE KIND OF SWITCHED OVER TO
THE INDIANAPOLIS -- ACTUALLY,
THE NORTH WEBSTER, INDIANA
RADAR, THE NORTHERN INDIANA
RADAR.
RADAR. THE SHOWERS ARE BREAKING OUT TO
THE SOUTH.
THE SOUTH. I THINK THE LION’S SHARE OF THAT
WILL STAY TO THE WEST TODAY.
LENAWEE AND MONROE COUNTIES WILL
SEE SHOWERS DEVELOP DURING THE
MID TO LATE MORNING HOURS.
THEN THEY WILL KIND OF DISSIPATE
DURING THE AFTERNOON.
WE’LL TALK ABOUT THAT COMING UP
IN A BIT.
IN A BIT. TEMPERATURES TODAY GETTING INTO
THE UPPER 50s.

REQUIRES THAT EVERYONE WEAR A
COVERING OVER THEIR NOSE AND
MOUTH LIKE A HOMEMADE MASK OR
SCARF OR BANDANA OR HANDKERCHIEF
IN AN ENCLOSED PUBLIC SPACE.
TO BE CLEAR, WHEN YOU GO TO THE
GROCERY STORE OR TO THE PHARMACY
OR TO ANY STORE THAT’S OPEN
DURING THIS TIME, YOU NEED TO
WEAR A FACEMASK.
IF YOU’RE IN AN OUTDOOR AREA,
THIS ORDER DOESN’T REQUIRE THAT
YOU WEAR ONE, BUT YOU SHOULD
CONSIDER IT ANYWAY.
