This week's severe storms spawned at least one confirmed tornado in southeast Michigan and weather officials are still conducting surveys on Sept. 4 to determine if more touched down.
Severe weather has been rolling in and out of Michigan's Lower Peninsula since Wednesday, Sept. 2, causing flooding, damage to homes and downed trees leaving hundreds of thousands without power.
An EF-0 tornado touched down for about 3 minutes near Marysville in St. Clair County at 7:19 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 3, producing winds from 65-85 mph, according to the Detroit National Weather Service.
"A brief weak tornado tracked across portions of Marysville, Michigan in St. Clair County on the evening of September 2, 2026. Tree damage was sporadic along a narrow path between Gratiot Boulevard and Highway 29," the NWS said.
Officials have yet to complete damage surveys that could confirm additional tornadoes from Thursday's storms. The storms produced winds up to 66 mph in southeast Michigan, according to the National Weather Services local storm reports.
Several tornado warnings were issued Thursday afternoon, Sept. 3, for areas in Monroe, Lenawee, Livingston, Saginaw, Washtenaw, Wayne and Gratiot counties after radar indicated rotation, according to the NWS.
As storms move through the Lower Peninsula Friday morning, Sept. 4, here's the live radar:
