Thunderstorm Wind in Charlevoix County, Michigan

Large tree blown down onto home, and a roof blown off a campground building, amid other wind damage reports from the East Jordan area. Trained spotter reported a gust to 52 mph in the Boyne City area, and the AWOS sensor at the Boyne Falls airport reported a gust to 51mph at 21:34. Several power outages were noted in the East Jordan area during the evening and overnight, prior to icing-related outages.

Convective development along and north of the warm front with some pea to dime size hail in the Straits region early. During the evening hours, this convective activity was intensified by atmospheric gravity waves that allowed for strong downward momentum transport in an otherwise very stable low-level environment that was unfavorable for damaging winds. Scattered power outages prior to icing occurred with these storms, as well as some wind damage. Thunderstorms continued into the night, with precipitation across the M-68/M-32 corridors slowly transitioning from rain to freezing rain with time.
