With frigid temperatures expected to impact the entire state beginning this weekend, the Michigan State Police is encouraging residents and visitors to be extra cautious when going out in the extreme cold. The National Weather Service is forecasting wind chills to cause temperatures to fall below zero at times Saturday night through Monday morning in the Lower Peninsula. Exposure to these temperatures could potentially cause frostbite and hypothermia, as well as create hazardous driving conditions. Michigan weather is unpredictable any time of year, but especially during the winter months. If you are stranded, do not leave your vehicle. Stay with the vehicle and wait for help. Residents who need assistance or guidance during the extreme cold are encouraged to call 211.
