Also, bar night starts earlier now because of the cold here in Detroit. GO Tigers!

I tried to look at web cams to look at the weather, and along the lakeshore, I am not sure if there is even any snow. Cap'n Morgan or Bob 240 would know for sure though. This is the Grand Haven channel. Here is the Muskegon channel. Of course, #1 you have to make sure its today's photos, and #2, with the wind, all the snow might have blown inland.
