The Michigan Department of Natural Resources is reminding ice anglers and snowmobilers that no ice is safe ice. See the DNR's tips on what to watch for on the ice.

Yesterday, I spent a good 20 minutes knocking all of the snow off my truck. Half way through I thought to myself, there has to be a better way. Then, as I brushed off more of that soft flaky powdery snow we had yesterday, it hit me like a ton of bricks. Leaf Blower. Good idea or not I knew someone else did it before me, and probably filmed it. I was right!

This video, thankfully, does not hail from Michigan. In the Netherlands sure they could salt the roads, or they could leave it be and have the streets turn into a sweet ice rink.

As of 4:30PM on Sunday, approximately 6,000 Consumers Energy customers remained without service from the Christmas Eve storm. Now, nearly all customers have had power restored. If you are still without power, Consumers Energy is asking you to contact them.

As crowds head to Lake Michigan to see and explore the ice on the lake, the U.S. Coast Guard is warning of the dangers of the ice.

Lake Michigan reached an all-time high level of ice coverage over the weekend while deep snow has many on alert for risk of flooding.

With the recent snow, snow, thaw, snow, snow, ice melt, snow, snow, ice melt pattern we have been going through, icicles have been forming all over the place. And some look really weird.

There's only one way to sum up this Sunday morning: Slippery and treacherous. Authorities across West Michigan report ice-, slush- and snow-covered roads, the result of a wintry mix dumped overnight.

Look outside. The weather is frightful today. It's only going to get worse tomorrow. Almost 60 and thunderstorms. Makes you wonder about things like "How does the ice at Rosa Parks Circle stay frozen?" Well, say no more, I have the answer for you.
