Rainy, windy mess arriving, going to give Michigan grief for the next 36 hours

As I stated in earlier posts, tropical moisture from the remnants of Hurricane Patricia is streaming into a rapidly-deepening cold-core storm system currently spinning to our west.  The result is what you see below:

This mess is going to essentially drench the entire state of Michigan with tropical rain and high winds for the next 24-36 hours.  This is one of our typical "November Gales", and what you would expect to see at this time of year.  If it were frozen, it'd be a major blizzard. Nonetheless, power outages are possible in some areas due to the high winds as they may cross severe thresholds in some areas. Be on the lookout for downed lines and flooded roadways, and stay safe.
