"Unseasonable Warmth Forecasted for Michigan and Metro Detroit"
The start of March in Michigan and the Great Lakes region will bring record warm temperatures, with highs reaching 70-73 degrees in the southern half of Lower Michigan and 65-70 degrees in the northern half on Monday. This warming trend is expected to continue through mid-March, with temperatures running 10 to 30 degrees above normal. However, the sudden warmth poses a risk to fruit growers, as a potential freeze in April could damage their crops.
