Michigan winter snow and ice
The Next Winter Snow and Ice Episode in Metro Detroit is heading our way later this week. Heavy snow will come from this system but it will be mostly north of Pontiac and is expected to bring steady snow. We may have this system late Wednesday into early Thursday. Winter isn’t done with us yet. The next 48 hours will make or break us in predicting what kind of storm is going to form. So don’t drain the gas out of the snow blower just yet. My guess is to keep the ice scraper and salt handy for this one. We usually get hit with a giant ice storm that makes everything look beautiful, but also hard to get the Red Wings game if your TV dish is covered with ice.
If you live South of I-94 to the state line, look for a period of rain before the changeover to frozen rain Thursday morning. North of Port Huron could see 5” or more snow. Monroe always seems to get socked with bad weather, but will not see any significant amounts of snow, look for rain and possible ice. Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties are already under a Winter Storm Watch.
I am just like all of you, I had Winter weather being toast. Time for Spring and Tigers baseball. But I guess that fluffy Ground Hog had some weather info before all of us. A possible winter storm system will move into Metro Detroit during the afternoon Wednesday and continue through midday Thursday. Rain, freezing rain, and snow are all possible depending on where you live. Wonder how much a plane ticket to Cabo would be for this week?
Hamtramck - The City of the Week 2023 Photos
Congratulations to Hamtramck, The WCSX City of the Week!
We LOVE going to Hamtramck this time of the year. Pączki Day (Fat Tuesday) is February 21, 2023. I will tell you my secret: we go the day before so that we already have our pączkis for the morning AND we can show you what’s up before it’s over. The downfall is that I eat pączkis for 24 hours straight, but, ya know… they’re flipping delicious!
New Palace Bakery has been around since 1908. Their baked goods are BEYOND amazing. I’m not a huge traditions person, but I also don’t want to think about a Pączki Day without a New Palace Bakery pączki. I am 100% spoiled by the delicious baked goods and pączki. Every year try their new flavor. This year it’s “Orange Cream-ski.” Check out the pictures below of the box of deliciousness from New Palace along with more adventures in Hamtramck (a stop at the Rock and Roll Party store is always a MUST)!
The Pączki Elvis, Pelvis, and I went to New Palace and sampled the new flavor. Check out our Facebook Live:
It is not easy eating a pączki without wearing a little bit here or there. Happy Pączki Day! Pelvis and his hair are hitting the streets and delivering boxes of New Palace Bakery paczkis to people at work on behalf of Big Jim’s House! Scroll down to see our pictures from our 2023 adventures.
After you check out the pictures below, if you want more, check out our pictures from past Hamtramck City of the Week adventures!
