  • Heat Advisory Hits Southwest Michigan | Lansing News

    Sweltering temps are here to stay — Southwest Michigan’s under a heat advisory with the heat index hitting 100°, especially in Berrien, Cass, and St. Joseph until Wednesday night. Even though fall’s on the calendar, humidity’s making it feel like summer, with highs in the 80s-90s and southern Lower Peninsula feeling even hotter. Officials say reschedule outdoor plans, hydrate, seek shade, and stay indoors during peak heat. Plus, thunderstorms with hail and damaging winds are rolling in Tuesday-Wednesday — stay alert and take care out there.

  • Spartans Kick Off 2026 Season | Lansing News

    Michigan State’s football season kicks off Friday night with a showdown against Toledo at Spartan Stadium — but fans, faculty, and staff need to prep for major changes. Parking lots will be restricted Thursday night through Friday morning, with some reopening later for passholders and others requiring earlier access. Faculty should leave campus by 1 PM to avoid chaos. Expect traffic delays due to roadwork — plan ahead! Game-day parking is $40 (or $20 at the commuter lot with shuttle), and digital tickets/pass downloads are strongly recommended. Tailgating is permitted in designated zones including Munn Field. Cashless stadium purchases and clear-bag policy are in effect. Classes and campus operations run normally — just factor in extra travel time and parking logistics. Text SPARTANFB26 to 8887777 for real-time updates.

  • Kent Woman Wins $1M Lottery Ticket | Lansing News

    A 58-year-old woman in Kent County, Michigan, just won $1 million on a scratch-off ticket — and her son couldn’t believe her reaction when she scratched it at home.

  • Michigan Expands Free Lead Filters | Lansing News

    Michigan’s new “Get Ahead of Lead” initiative is rolling out free water filters and replacement cartridges to families most at risk—especially those with kids under 19 on Medicaid or pregnant Medicaid enrollees living in homes with older plumbing, lead service lines, or fixtures installed before 2014.

  • Tiny Wasps Fight Lily Beetles in Michigan | Lansing News

    Michigan State University is launching a bold, nature-powered battle against the invasive scarlet lily beetle by releasing over 4,000 tiny European parasitoid wasps across 13 sites—including backyard gardens—to target and destroy beetle larvae before they become destructive adults. These specialized wasps are harmless to other insects and native lilies like Michigan’s own species, offering a patient but promising biological solution to protect native flora. Success won’t happen overnight—survival, reproduction, and population growth will take years—but this science-backed strategy could turn garden pests into a thing of the past.
