    We're starting off the day with a look at the weather. After a frigid start to the week with lake effect snow showers, it's time to get out and enjoy the weekend. If you're planning on heading outdoors, make sure to bundle up because it's still quite chilly.

    Speaking of outdoor activities, there's plenty to do in and around Traverse City today. For nature lovers, the Cabin Fever Hike at Lighthouse West Natural Area in Northport kicks off at 10:00 a.m. If you're more into snowshoeing, meet at the Grand Traverse Lighthouse gift shop at 10:00 a.m. for a guided hike. And for a family-friendly evening activity, don't miss the Family Night Hikes at Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore starting at 6:00 p.m.

    If you're looking for something a bit more indoors, the 15th Annual Traverse City Restaurant Week is happening today, offering a variety of dining options across the city and Grand Traverse County. And for music enthusiasts, the 15th Annual Great Indoor Folk Festival is taking place at The Village at GT Commons, The Mercato, starting at 12:00 p.m.

And for a deeper look into winter's impact, check out "Bitter & Beauty: Winter's Truth in the Midwest" at a local gallery, featuring interpretations of the season by Michigan artists.
