| episode_narrative | A severe weather outbreak on July second resulted in numerous reports of wind damage and large hail. The strong to severe thunderstorms also produced very heavy rain, flooding, and even flash flooding across portions of Kalamazoo county.||Strong winds with gusts over 60 mph, along with large areas of wind damage, occurred from Muskegon to Grand Rapids and Lansing, south to Kalamazoo. In parts of Allegan county, winds were estimated between 65 to 75 mph by the National Weather Service, which conducted a storm survey of the area. These winds brought down dozens of trees and snapped eight power poles southwest of Fennville. In northwest Kalamazoo county, the winds blew the roof off a home at 15th Street and 102nd Avenue.||Large hail of three quarters of an inch in diameter or greater was reported from Muskegon to Montcalm county, including southern Newaygo and northern Kent counties. Another area or large hail stretched from Allegan county east through Ingham county and south into Kalamazoo and Jackson counties. The hail was large enough to damage some crops. The largest hail was 1.75 inches near Morley and 1.5 inches near Lakewood Club in Muskegon county. |
