| episode_narrative | A warm front moved north across lower Michigan on the 12th, ushering in another warm, muggy, unstable air mass. Thunderstorms developed northeast of Grand Rapids in the afternoon, then moved east toward the Saginaw Valley and Thumb areas. One storm evolved into a classic supercell, producing baseball sized hail from just east of Bay City to near Sebewaing. The supercell continued east across Huron County, and produced the first tornado of the severe weather season a few miles north of White Rock. Many trees were downed near the Lake Huron shoreline, with some downed onto homes. A storage shed was blown into a neighbor's yard, a swimming pool was destroyed, and several canoes were damaged.Several other storms moved across Huron County, dumping up to 5 inches of rain in some parts of the county. Flash flooding resulted in the Pigeon/Elkton area. A trailer park in Elkton had to be evacuated as the Pinnebog River quickly rose out of its banks. Water rose as high as the electric meters on some of the mobile homes. High water lingered in the county through the night, with flooding along the Willow River in Bloomfield Township (Redman Road was closed for a time), and street flooding in Harbor Beach.Additional storms developed further south in the evening, and moved east across metro Detroit. These storms produced marginally severe hail, and sporadic wind damage in the form of downed trees and power lines. |
