Written by on May 9, 2024

Severe storms swept across the central U.S., unleashing three tornadoes in Michigan and causing fatal damage in Tennessee. In Michigan, the tornadoes impacted areas in Kalamazoo, Cass, and Branch counties, with one particularly devastating twister tearing apart a FedEx facility in Portage and destroying over a dozen mobile homes. In Tennessee, a 22-year-old man tragically lost his life when a tree, brought down by high winds, fell on his vehicle. The storms were part of a larger pattern of extreme weather affecting the Midwest, including previous tornadoes and ongoing recovery efforts in various states. The severity of the storms has led to significant destruction, power outages, and a continuing threat of more adverse weather.
