Blustery winds blast cold air on Black Friday

Posted: Updated:
MONROE, Michigan -

Blustery winds from the west are driving temperatures downward, on the heels of the early Black Friday morning cold front.  Although we were in the middle 50s very early this morning, we'll fall through the lower 40s and into the 30s through the daytime hours. The winds from the west will be sustained at 15-25 mph, with gusts over 35 mph, and this will cause large waves to grow on Lake Erie. A Gale Warning has been issued for the Lake Erie shoreline in Monroe County, Michigan.  Small Craft Advisories are in effect for the Ohio lakeshore.  

A few snow flurries and snow showers will arrive this afternoon and evening, but no significant accumulations are expected.

In the extended forecast, however, there is potential for an accumulating snow on Tuesday.  Stay tuned!

    If a tornado threatens, get into the basement. If you don't have a basement, a small, interior room in the lowest floor of your home is relatively safe. Avoid rooms with windows. Mobile homes are not safe in a tornado.
