A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect until 4pm.
Metro Detroit will see ice accumulations between 0.1″ - 0.25″ in spots, which enough to create slick roads, hazardous travel conditions, and even potential power issues if ice sticks to lines and trees.

Since freezing rain bonds directly to pavement and doesn’t quickly melt or wash away like snow - untreated roads, secondary streets, sidewalks, and overpasses could become very slick. Travel through the midday commute looks like it could be tricky. By the afternoon and evening temperatures slowly creep back above freezing and leftover precipitation changes to plain rain and the worst of the ice threat should diminish by then. The surfaces that have already iced up will remain slippery through the early part of the weekend until crews can treat and clear them.
