Quite a ways north of me, 180 miles, but I hope all of our Michigan members are safe.
Haven't seen any confirmed reports concerning injuries. My fingers are crossed that if any they are minor. Bob

Oh wow. Best wishes sent.
News says it hit the West side of town, so it missed the downtown area. Tornadoes very unusual for Michigan but they do happen. This looks like a strong one.
Growing up here in S.E. North Carolina, I have no memory of tornados when I was young. . I remember hurricanes and floods, but no tornados. They may have occurred, but I don't remember them. Now they do hit near here sometimes. Living by the ocean, we do get our share of storms.
This morning news reports One death and 44 injured so far from this storm.
I saw some more pictures of the damage and that number sure could have been a lot bigger. Prayers sent for those that were affected. Bob
Buddy of mine lives ~ 40 miles NE as the crow flies from Gaylord.
He sent these yesterday.

One more death has been added to yesterdays tornado in Gaylord, making a total of 2. Praying that no more succumb to injuries.
Like Ricci ,I grew up in eastern NC . Learned about " tornado alley" in school but never knew of one happening here until the late 70s early 80s . Now they are fairly frequent .
As the storms ripped through here yesterday it ripped the roof off of a building about 10 miles south of us. It was just High winds Possibly around 60-70 MPH.

Here in tornado alley, we like to share. ☺️
Seriously though, prayers sent, don't wish that weather on anyone.
