What the National Weather Service wrote

A trained spotter reported one pole down and another damaged, as well as a couple large tree limbs down.

The wider storm

A low pressure system traversed the Northern Plains into the Great Lakes region pushing a warm front into Michigan allowing a cold front to sweep through the area. With the warm sector overhead, this allowed for optimal moisture. Storms developed across parts of the area, with a few producing damaging winds and large hail.

Began near Monroe (40.7400, -84.9400).
