(FOX 2) – Plan on the sun greeting residents in Southeast Michigan on Thursday as temperatures dip.

However, by Friday, snow will be back in the forecast with flakes possible in the early morning.

Big picture view:

Thursday’s temperatures will peak in the low 40s this with some gusts as high as 24 mph.

Fortunately, the sun will be out for the majority of the day, adding some warmth to the air heading into the end of the week. 

Then, around 2 a.m., snow could fall along with a mixture of rain. There will be increasing cloud cover throughout the day as temperatures sink further. The low for Friday will just eclipse freezing conditions.

There will be more wind gusts as well. Snow could accumulate as much as half an inch.

Weekend weather

Rain and snow will likely greet commuters when they’re on the road Friday around 10 a.m. before transitioning to just rain by 2 p.m.

Snow will also accumulate another half an inch, according to the National Weather Service. 

Saturday will have partly sunny conditions and a high of 40 degrees. Sunday will transition to likely rain and snow with a high of 55 degrees.

It appears the brief warm spell that early March brought was only temporary, with freezing temperatures returning the following week.

Interpreting the meaning behind a song isn’t always easy. Sounds that transmit a particular vibe to one person can give off something completely different to someone else. Even lyrics that seem obvious can be misinterpreted — or misheard entirely (“Excuse me … while I kiss this guy”).

For the new single from his VLNTYN project, Milwaukee’s Jorge Vallentine doesn’t go quite so far as to build an entire world for the listener. But he does show them the door.

More accurately, Valentine explained the entryway in notes provided with “Wrong Turn,” the track we’re helping him premiere today. “Through a mysterious red doorframe, a dark world exists,” he wrote about the song, adding that it “carries you across the threshold into that world’s brooding atmosphere.”

The opening moments of “Wrong Turn” don’t so much kick that door in as cautiously extend a hand toward the knob. An ominous guitar lick punctuated by the occasional kickdrum sets the scene while Vallentine laments, “I took a wrong turn too far back / to remember now.” What he remembers with crystal clarity are the choices he made and how they damaged those around him:

Guess I’m no better than my father
Stumbling through lessons I can’t learn
Hurt myself, hurt lovers
Drowning in deeper waters
I took a wrong turn too far back
To remember now

Like the lyrics, the sonic footprint of the track doesn’t offer relief or resolution. The closest “Wrong Turn” gets to catharsis is a guitar solo around the midway point, but even that would rather maintain the tension than provide any kind of release.

The same feeling carries over to the song’s final moments, with another guitar contribution that walks right up to the edge of a wail before backing off and surrendering to an understated final few lines, followed by a few quick hits on the snare that are more ellipsis than period. It’s an abrupt ending that suggests self-forgiveness isn’t in the cards. “A dark world,” to be sure.

You can listen to “Wrong Turn” by VLNTYN on demand using the player at the top of the page or on 88Nine throughout today (7:30 and 11:30 a.m.; 3:30 and 7:30 p.m.). The single’s official release date is March 18, after which VLNTYN will play shows at Ope! Brewing Co, (April 11) and MKeUltra (May 16).

MINNEAPOLIS — Target announced on Wednesday that it plans to lower prices on over 3,000 items.

The price cuts, most of which will be a reduction of 5-20 percent in cost, will start in March and continue throughout the spring on products including women’s and children’s apparel, bedding, shoes, baby items, pantry goods and more, according to the company.

“Busy families are thinking about value as they begin to update their homes and wardrobes for spring,” Cara Sylvester, executive vice president and chief merchandising officer of Target, said in a news release. “We’re committed to making it easier than ever for guests to have the fresh style and incredible value they love, with lower prices on the items we know they want.”

Target also lowered prices on thousands of items in 2025, according to the company.

Consumer prices have soared about 25 percent over the past five years, although the pace of inflation has cooled.

Target recently reported another quarter of declining sales and profits amid its struggles to regain its footing with customers, but it also delivered a solid annual profit outlook and has said it believes net sales will grow every quarter this year.

The company is investing billions in its business in 2026 to spruce up its store experience, remodel stores and invest in its workers. Its capital plans include opening 30 new stores and plans to remodel 130 of its existing stores.
