Winter weather advisory issued for parts of SE Michigan: What we’re tracking
4Warn Weather – Another messy morning commute on tap for parts of Southeast Lower Michigan, but not everyone will be affected.
The National Weather Service has just issued a Winter Weather Advisory for Livingston, Oakland, Macomb, St. Clair, and areas north of I-69 from 4am to 1pm Thursday.
Arrival of snow will be from the west around 7am. As the morning continues on and temperatures warm, we’ll see this snow transition to rain or freezing rain by late morning.
The freezing rain line looks likely to set up right around I-94. Rain to the south. By just after lunch, just about everyone transitions over to rain, then the precipitation ends by about 3pm.
Snow rates will be high in this short duration event, so accumulation looks likely north of 94, with the highest amounts north. Here’s a breakdown.
-
Around I-94: Trace to ½”
-
I-94 to I-96: ½” to 2″
-
I-96 to I-69: 2″-4″, maybe a touch more north.
The 4 Warn Weather Team continues to track the rain/snow line — track updates in the 4Warn Weather app, on Local 4 and ClickOnDetroit.

Michigan football lands four-star offensive lineman Lincoln Mageo
Michigan football coach Kyle Whittingham introduced to Crisler crowd
Michigan football coach Kyle Whittingham introduced to Crisler Center in Ann Arbor on Friday, Jan. 2, 2026.
Michigan football did the bulk of its work on recruiting its class of 2027 in May and June, but continues to round out its class, which came with another commitment in the trenches.
The Wolverines landed a pledge from four-star interior lineman Lincoln Mageo out of Oceanside High in Oceanside, California, who chose U-M over Utah and Washington on Saturday, July 11. Mageo, who had more than 20 Division I offers including programs such as Ohio State, Texas and USC, stands 6 feet 4 and 280 pounds.
Mageo, who visited Ann Arbor in early June, was named a Polynesian Bowl All-Star.
“Strong customer as a drive blocker in the run game,” 247Sports scouting analyst Gabe Brooks wrote. “Flashes some heavy-handed pop, particularly when traveling and when helping in pass pro.
“Enhancing fluidity throughout lower half will raise the ceiling on pass-pro ability. Projects to the P4 level as a candidate to become a run-game enforcer.”
Mageo is rated the No. 19 interior lineman in the nation, the No. 31 player in California and No. 369 in the class of 2027, according to 247Sports’ composite rankings. He’s the fourth offensive line pledge to sign on to play for position coach Jim Harding, joining four-star Jakari Lipsey, three-star Sidney Rouleau and three-star Louis Esposito (the son of former U-M D-line coach Lou Esposito, who departed for the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens).
Michigan now has 21 commits in its class, which was ranked No. 19, per 247, prior to Mageo’s commitment.

Michigan State Police rule out suspect in Electric Forest baby death investigation
ROTHBURY, Mich. — Michigan State Police (MSP) detectives shared some more information Friday about their investigation of the infant death at this year’s Electric Forest music festival in Rothbury.
Troopers recently received a tip about a Muskegon woman who was said to have information about the incident, but after interviewing her and completing other necessary investigative steps, MSP said they ruled her out as a suspect.
A restroom vending company employee at the festival found the body of a neonate, a newborn infant who is four weeks old or younger, in a portable restroom in the festival camping area on June 28, according to troopers.
The festival is hosted at the Double JJ Resort, which was locked down to anyone entering the following day as police surrounded the scene.
Troopers are asking for tips from the public at michigan.gov/michtip.
