Thousands Without Power On Cold, Icy Morning
DETROIT (WWJ) - Thousands of people across metro Detroit are waking up Tuesday without power, thanks to the icy weather conditions.
DTE Energy says about 11,000 homes and businesses are dealing with power outages. Almost half of those outages are along Lapeer Road near Clarkston Road in Lake Orion, due to ice on lines.

Crews are working to restore power, but a time estimate has not been provided.
