Winter Weather Advisory issued January 19 at 1:14PM EST until January 20 at 10:00AM EST by NWS Detroit/Pontiac MI

cold wind chills as low as 15 below zero. Potential for additional
accumulation from a dusting to locally 2 inches thru Tuesday
morning.
* WHERE...A portion of southeast Michigan.
* WHEN...Until 10 AM EST Tuesday.
* IMPACTS...Potential for slippery road conditions. The hazardous

Slow down and use caution while traveling. You can obtain the latest
road conditions from the MDOT Michigan Drive Map.
Persons are urged to stay indoors until conditions improve. If you
must go outside, dress in layers. Several layers of clothes will
keep you warmer than a single heavy coat. Cover exposed skin to
reduce your risk of frostbite or hypothermia. Gloves, a scarf, and a
hat will keep you from losing your body heat.
Be prepared for slippery roads. Slow down and use caution while
driving. If you are going outside, watch your first few steps taken
on stairs, sidewalks, and driveways. These surfaces could be icy and
slippery, increasing your risk of a fall and injury.
