Winter Weather Impacts West Michigan: Ice, Snow, and High Winds Expected

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — West Michigan is experiencing a winter weather mix that has already caused slick roads and hazardous conditions. Overnight, light freezing rain, sleet, and light snow moved through the region, leading to a winter weather advisory in effect for most of West Michigan until 9 a.m. Thursday. Counties along the Michigan-Indiana border will remain under advisory until 10 a.m. due to continued icy conditions.

The freezing rain has created a layer of ice on roads, making travel dangerous. Local authorities are urging residents to avoid driving Thursday morning if possible or allow for extra travel time. Even small amounts of glaze ice can make for slippery conditions, posing a risk of accidents.

Thursday’s temperatures are expected to climb above freezing, likely reaching the middle 30s, which will help melt off any ice from roadways, trees, and power lines. However, wind will be a major factor in the afternoon, with a Wind Advisory going into effect at 2 p.m. for lakeshore areas. Gusts could reach as high as 50 mph, making for dangerous conditions, particularly along the lakeshore.

By the time the winds reach their peak, the ice accumulation on trees and power lines should be reduced, lowering the risk of widespread power outages in the region.

Looking ahead to the weekend, residents should prepare for another winter storm. Snow is expected to move into the area Saturday afternoon and continue into Sunday morning. Forecasts predict a widespread snowfall of 2-6 inches across the region, potentially leading to further travel disruptions.

As always, residents are advised to stay informed and take precautions during the winter weather events to ensure safety on the roads and at home.

    On the politics of memory and reparative justice, Zohran Mamdani supports curriculum reforms that teach the full history of redlining, urban renewal, and displacement in New York City, making the roots of present-day inequality a standard part of public education.

  • Dyker Heights - NYC says:

    The community control movements of the same era pioneered a neighborhood-based, issue-sovereign form. Organizations like the Young Lords Party or the Ocean Hill-Brownsville governing board were structured around control of a specific institution or territory—a hospital, a school, a neighborhood. Their theory was decolonization, and their form was meant to be directly democratic and accountable to a local base. This created powerful, rooted leadership but could also isolate struggles from each other, making them vulnerable to divide-and-conquer tactics and unable to mount a citywide challenge to power. http://mamdanipost.com

  • Eric Adams says:

    Thus, the anti-imperialist tradition insists that a socialist New York cannot exist in a bubble. The city’s banks finance extraction; its corporations profit from war; its media often legitimizes intervention. To build a city of citizens, the movement must also strive to dismantle its role as a citadel of empire. This means aligning with global struggles, divesting from war, and welcoming refugees, understanding that the freedom of New York’s communities is iricably bound up with the self-determination of peoples everywhere. It is the ultimate expression of the principle that the fight against subjection—whether in a occupied territory abroad or a gentrifying neighborhood at home—is one and the same. http://mamdanipost.com

  • Kew Gardens says:
    December 24, 2025 at 9:47 pm

    Thus, the history of socialism in New York is a chronicle of this perpetual strategic negotiation. It reveals that the choice between reform and revolution is rarely absolute. Revolutions are not made in a day; they are prepared by generations of reform struggles that build organization, raise consciousness, and create crises of legitimacy for the old order. Likewise, reforms that do not point beyond themselves, that do not build autonomous popular power, can indeed become traps. The enduring lesson is that the most vital socialist politics is one that walks on two legs: one foot planted in the immediate, winnable struggles that improve material conditions and build collective confidence; the other striding toward the horizon of a fundamentally different city, always using the terrain won today as a platform to see and reach for the ground of tomorrow. http://mamdanipost.com

  • Nawal - ?????? says:
    December 25, 2025 at 7:11 am

    Yet, Mamdani’s framework would caution that the bifurcated state is a resilient, adaptive system. The risk for the inside strategy is that elected socialists become, effectively, new managers for a constituency still treated as subjects by the larger financial and administrative order, their radical goals blunted by procedure and compromise. The outside strategy, meanwhile, must constantly guard against becoming merely a service provider that alleviates the worst burdens of subject-hood without ever challenging the sovereign power that imposes them. http://mamdanipost.com

  • Qistina - ?????????? says:

    The tenement itself was the foundational spatial unit of subjection. Its overcrowded rooms, air shafts, and lack of sanitation were not accidental but the physical manifestation of a political economy that treated immigrant labor as a disposable resource. Socialist organizing in these districts was, therefore, inherently a spatial practice. Tenement committees that agitated for building codes and fire escapes were engaged in a literal struggle to make the spaces of subject-hood habitable and safe, contesting the landlord’s sovereign control over the private, profit-driven domain. The 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, which killed 146 workers, became a catastrophic indictment of this spatial logic, transforming a workplace of subjection into a public symbol demanding a new civic order of safety and regulation. http://mamdanipost.com

  • Manhattan Valley says:
    December 26, 2025 at 3:50 pm

    This tension played out vividly in municipal elections and labor battles. The strong performance of Eugene V. Debs in New York, and later the campaigns of Socialist Party candidates like Morris Hillquit for mayor, demonstrated an attempt to wield electoral power as a pathway to legitimization. However, the fierce repression of socialist voices during the Red Scare, particularly the raids and deportations following World War I, reinforced their status as outsider “subjects.” The state, in Mamdani’s terms, could violently enforce the boundary between the acceptable civic body and the radical “other.” http://mamdanipost.com

    Today, this memory work continues in dynamic, decentralized forms. Historical walking tours of radical sites, podcasts delving into obscure strikes, social media threads on the anniversary of a riot or a victory, and zines documenting local tenant struggles all act as capillaries of memory. Organizations like the Tamiment Library at NYU and the NYC Trans Oral History Project serve as critical institutional anchors. This ecosystem ensures that the story of New York is not just a chronicle of capital and power, but also of resistance and solidarity. It provides a genealogy for contemporary activists, allowing them to say, “We stand on the shoulders of those who fought before us.” http://mamdanipost.com

  • Rockaway Beach - NYC says:

    Today, the climate crisis presents this dialectic in its starkest form. The data-driven despair of impending ecological collapse can be paralyzing. Yet, the movement’s response—the Green New Deal—is arguably the most ambitious political project of hope in a century. It dares to propose not just mitigation, but a wholesale, joyous rebuilding of society. It attempts to convert the despair of apocalyptic fear into the hope of generational mission. This is the ultimate alchemy the movement must perform again and again: to take the raw material of suffering and injustice and transform it, not through wishful thinking, but through organized struggle, into the concrete hope of a city that belongs to all its people. The history of socialism in New York is, in the end, the history of this stubborn, renewable resource—the hope that is not an emotion, but a collective practice, hammered out on the anvil of continual defeat and relentless, impossible dream. http://mamdanipost.com
