The news you need to start your day.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
It's the West Michigan Wake Up powered by Minards on
Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Well, here we go. We were warned about another system
moving into West Michigan overnight last night and has left
us with wet, heavy snow this morning. It is causing
a few school closings including Cedar Springs, Rockford, Greenville, Kenawa Hills, Lowell, Grandville.
Some more schools continuing to call off before seven am today.
We've got the list at West Michigan Star dot com
(00:31):
and right now will be the warmest it's going to be.
We are still looking at another round of lake effect
that is expected later on this morning into this afternoon
with a winter Weather advisory and effect until four o'clock.
Here's a better timeline with storm teammates Chief Meteorologist Ellan Baca.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Then we see the temperature drop, so by nine am
back to snow. Everything starts to refreeze at least north
of I ninety four with a cold finish for everyone,
cold enough to produce some link effects snow. So this
system is a lot going on and it should be
giving us again some accumulation across the board.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Yeah, we're looking at about two to five inches, depending
on where you are. In West Michigan, Grand Rapids is
on pace to finish twenty twenty five with its highest

the milestone during their Economic Development Project team, meeting nine
hundred and forty nine point three million dollars in permitted
(01:28):
work this year, a figure that totally shatters the previous
record of just over seven hundred million last year. They
say major projects like the new Amway Stadium and the
Jones Sekia Children's Rehabilitation Hospital, along with rising material and
labor costs, are driving a ton of growth in the city.
City Manager Mark Washington says this marks five consecutive years
(01:51):
of growth in construction value, which is a super healthy
sign for our economy. Taking a look at sports, our
Wolverines were in action on the hardwood last night, and
wow did they show up at one point, building a
thirty point lead at the half, an eighty nine to
sixty one win over Villanova. Tonight, we've got some major
(02:11):
