I look forward to the sunrise in the fall as I head southbound on I-75 from West Branch, Michigan. Especially when it's foggy, which is often the case in the fall during the morning. There's a subtle altitude (elevation) change that occurs as I-75 continues north of Bay City. If you pay attention you will notice trucks and cars overheating from Bay City north. It's because it's a fairly stiff grade. An example; Bay City elevation 585 ft  MSL, West Branch elevation 955 ft MSL, Houghton Lake elevation 1145 ft MSL and Gaylord  elevation 1348 ft MSL. When temperatures are around freezing, like Saturday night, if it's 30 or 31 degrees around Bay City you can pretty much count on cars that spin off the road between Sterling or Alger, Michigan.  It was proven again to me Friday.
