Power Outages Reported in Brighton After High Winds

High winds blowing throughout southeast Michigan early Sunday morning have left thousands in Brighton and Brighton Township without power.

The worst outages are in Brighton, with more than 2,400 without power, according to DTE Energy. Another 1,400 have been reported to be without power in Brighton Township.

DTE Energy estimates that power will be restored Sunday between 8:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m.

The National Weather Service has issued a hazardous weather outlook for southeastern Michigan, including Livingston County, in effect tonight and much of next week, as lake effect snow showers expand across the area.

In addition an expanding area of arctic air will also bring increasingly cold wind chill readings, which will approach 15 degrees below zero by late Monday night and Tuesday morning.
