WTF is this? Now all of SE Michigan is under a tornado watch until 2AM after record setting temps virtually all over in the 60s. |

It has happened before. I remember it being in the 70s on New Year's Eve 1n 1964, and again, Christmas Eve, 1982. And other times in other winters, too. (Message edited by gazhekwe on January 07, 2008) |

I got off of work this evening, it was dark out, and there were people out in shorts and t-shirts around Campus Martius. People out on runs in light clothing too. I was on my bike and overheating in my winter coat! No skating rink tonight...which made me wonder that I thought the rink could function up into the 70s (degrees). ? |

This is insane. I'm just chillin watching the LSU game hoping they stomp OSU, and the little tornado watch graphic pops up. I thought it was a glitch but then looked at the radar and saw all the mess coming our way. |

I saw a handful of motorcyclists sporting short sleeved shirts going up Woodward today too. Somebody told me the golf courses were thriving as of today too. |
