Winter Hazards Awareness WeekNov. 8–14

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has proclaimed Nov. 8-14 Winter Hazards Awareness Week. State police say even a routine winter storm can bring snow-covered roads, power outages and hazardous travel. If you haven't built a kit yet, this is your nudge.

MSP 8th District Public Information Officer Lt. Ben Eckola said that once a storm hits, you may not be able to get supplies, and some roads might not be passable. Marquette County Emergency Management Director Brian Hummel wants households to talk it through.

“Make sure that you're having a conversation with the other members of your household on this topic, make sure everyone's on the same page.”

The Wrap

A piano suite about Lake Superior sat mostly unperformed for decades. The late Marquette composer William Weber wrote the manuscript, which was preserved in the NMU archives after a donation by his former student Daniel Rydholm. NMU senior Martin Suring edited the score after nearly ten months of research into the unpublished manuscript, and he presents his project Friday, Nov. 13. Lovely work, Lake Superior.
