Yes, we’ve traded in those sunny days in the mid-40s for below-freezing weather. But look on the Brightside, we’re only a little below freezing.
The forecast for Jan. 9 is for partially cloudy skies and a high of just 32. The bad news is that the high was supposed to come and 2 a.m. We probably won’t see 32 degrees again until Sunday. The low is expected to be 19. Expect a cloudy afternoon and early evening, but there’s very little chance of precipitation. Don’t get too bummed out. The average high for Jan. 9 in Saline is 31.1 and the average low is 16. It could be worse!
The sun will rice at 8:03 a.m. and set at 5:21 p.m.

National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day highlights the importance of showing respect and honor to the men and women who protect and serve. There is a need to show law enforcement professionals that citizens recognize the difficult and often thankless jobs they have chosen to fulfill, especially in light of recent aversion to cops and other people of authority.
On this this day in history, in 2007, Apple CEO Steve Jobs announced the iPhone.
