After days of freezing temperatures followed by heavy snowfall, Michigan residents are feeling the full impact of winter.
Thomas Abraham, a Taylor resident, joked, “I could use a snowmobile about right now,” highlighting how the snow has made travel challenging.
While some Metro Detroit residents are embracing the winter wonderland, others are eagerly awaiting its end.
Abraham urged drivers to be cautious on the roads, noting, “It’s rough. It’s kind of rough.” He added, “A little bit dangerous. Everybody’s got to slow down.”
“Detroit weather you just got to live with it that’s all,” said Southgate resident Lewis Legg.
During this time of year, checking on elderly neighbors is important.
Legg takes it upon himself to shovel snow for several people on his block.
“Because they’re older people and they can’t get out and do it, so as long as I can do it. Why not?” he said.
These small acts of kindness make a big difference when the cold sets in.
For many, it’s not just about dealing with the snow — it’s about looking out for one another.
