Harley,
While I do advise the you watch the weather carefully. Going south first may be the good answer. But the real thing to take to heart is the carry at least a day's provisions. I can never get a straight answer as to what I can bring into the US from Canada, so I just don't bring in anything that was not packaged in the US. Nothing fresh. So, plan a grocery stop after the bridge.
Detroit is home of the worse crossing ever. (That is saying a lot from a person that has traveled in about a dozen countries.) If you are actually north of London, consider 402.
That time of year, few northern campgrounds are open. I don't even know of any in Michigan or Ohio. We travel self contained, so that is not a big issue for us.

Thanks Matt.....Yes we usually cross into the US at Port Huron.....have done it many times with only one bad experience with a US Agent. And it was my fault. Took a $90.00 bag of Canadian made dog food with us... Agent found it and confiscated it. I learned you can't take Canadian dog food into the US. We do as you do now.....basically empty fridge till we're in the States. Found a work around for the dog food issue.
And yes.....now revising our trip agenda and will head directly south to Central Florida and take it from there. Don
