HART — Lake-effect snow, frigid temperatures and whiteout conditions are creating dangerous travel conditions, but no major accidents have been reported. The Michigan State Police post has been dispatched to several minor crashes throughout the day Wednesday, Feb. 18; overnight; and into Thursday morning, Feb. 19.
“The troopers were busy all day and through the night,” Trooper Dan Thomas said. “They have been assisting wrecker companies up and down the freeways, acting as a visual with their lights on.” The troopers have primarily been on US-31, where traffic is slow due to the hazardous weather.
