Detroit public schools will be closed Friday because of extreme cold, the school system said.
The National Weather Service warned that in the Detroit area, wind chills are forecast to be between 10 and 25 degrees below zero.
Forecasters say Detroit is the hardest-hit this season, with more than 78 inches of snow and 13 days of temperatures below zero. New York, Philadelphia and Chicago also rank high on the misery list for record snowfall and freezing temps.
"We've been able to look at this winter and compare it to the record since 1950, and putting this winter in context, it really has been as severe as people think it is," said Barbara Mayes Boustead, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service.
"This really has been the worst winter in a lot of people's lifetimes. We haven't seen winters like this since the 70s in a lot of places."

6. Detroit Resident Threatening Google
Reddit user SourCreamWater posted this terrifying image of a Detroit resident pointing a large weapon at the Google vehicle. Google has since blurred out the gun, but Reddit user Free_ nabbed a few clear screenshots before the image was censored. Even more disturbing, a 17-month-old child was found dead in what appears to be the same home just a few months before this image was taken.
