Valentine's Day is just two weeks away, and we're here with ideas for some less traditional, more creative ways to spend this consumerism-fueled holiday in and around Detroit. Why it matters: We're not convinced that your lovely date is going to be satisfied with just a heart-shaped box of chocolates and a dinner reservation this year.

Temps will get into the 40 this afternoon in metro Detroit as we stay sunny and bright. Rain, ice and snow chances are around for Friday.

SSW 10-20 mph.
