(WXYZ) — Several airlines have started issuing travel alerts and advisories ahead of an expected snowstorm that's expected to hit Detroit and the Midwest.
The storm is expected to bring several inches of snow on Friday to the area, and strong wind gusts up to 50 mph which would bring blizzard conditions. Those blizzard conditions would be because of the wind and blowing snow, not because of the amount of snow.
