Event narrative

Several trees were downed in Lake City, and two buildings downtown sustained roof damage.

Wider weather episode

A warm front allowed warm and moist air to surge north into Northern Michigan. Initial thunderstorms developed in Eastern Upper Michigan in the afternoon; some of these produced large hail. Incoming thunderstorms organized into a line as they crossed Northern Lake Michigan; this squall line produced many reports of 40 to 55mph winds, but only a few pockets of wind damage, in addition to a single tornado.
