6. Lots of wind damage in mid-Michigan, but no tornado

Big areas without power and trees across roadways. Some flooding, too. Fortunately, the really bad weather is skirting us, so far, but the night's not over, yet.

7. Isn't this abnormal for the time of year?

I thought "tornado season" was mostly Springtime?

Anyway - be safe out there! Sending prayers and good vibes for everyone in the area...

IOW, global warming is unfolding just like all the experts told us it would.

12. The numbers are bad, but it could have been a lot worse

Local news, the NWS, and the local emergency preparedness groups did a fantastic job getting the warnings out.

14. I'm in Toledo, several small tornadoes here

Blew down a drive-in movie screen!

Several houses destroyed, power lines down, trees down. No reports of injuries so far.

Branches from a huge tree in the front yard down, but everything else is ok. Got in the tub with 3 dogs and hubby when the sirens went off. Still have 50 mph winds here. Hope the power stays on.
