| episode_narrative | A strong cold front moved through the Great Lakes region during the evening of April 20th. Very warm and humid air pushed into the region ahead of this front. This triggered widespread thunderstorms during the afternoon, some of which produced severe wind gusts and large hail. A much stronger line of thunderstorms then passed through the region during the early evening hours. This line of thunderstorms accompanied the passage of the cold front. The strongest of these storms occurred south and east of an Owosso to Bad Axe line, many of which were accompanied by severe wind gusts. An estimated 10,000 homes and businesses reportedly lost power during the storms. Thunderstorm winds were also responsible for blowing down a 200-foot electricity tower in Ontario, Canada, just across the St Clair River from Marysville. The tower fell onto the river. This led to a major backup of ships on the St Clair River waterways. |
