Original story: 1 p.m.
The Mackinac Bridge is currently closed to traffic due to falling ice, which has formed from recent fog freezing to the bridge's towers and cables, the bridge's operators say.
There is no ETA for reopening the bridge, as ice continues to fall, the bridge authority said in a news release issued at around 11:30 a.m.
It said updates will be posted to the Mackinac Bridge Twitter/X page @MackinacBridge and on the website at www.MackinacBridge.org.
