Michigan greets the morning with biting air and fresh snow brushing the shoreline of Lake Superior. Thermometers sit near 0 degrees in Marquette, and wind chills hover below zero.

Tonight turns partly cloudy, with lows near 22. Winds remain manageable for now. That changes heading into Friday night.
A strong cold front sweeps in late Friday, bringing much colder air and powerful west winds. Gusts could exceed 45 mph, especially near Lake Superior and the Keweenaw. Areas of blowing snow may reduce visibility in open stretches. Conditions may deteriorate quickly after sunset Friday. Secure loose items and prepare for difficult travel.
