cold front will be strong in the keweenaw and near Lake Superior,
gusting up to 25-30 mph.
Dry weather returns to the entire U.P. from west to east by late

near Lake Superior, are expected tonight. RHS make a full recovery
and some patchy fog and frost may develop in the west as winds
taper off. Monday will be quiet with light winds, mostly sunny
