The wider storm

After a warm front mixed northward across northern Michigan during the day, a weak shortwave progressing overhead helped initiate storms along a weak boundary over Lake Michigan. This line of storms tracked eastward across the area, producing damaging winds into the early morning hours of 8-11. Training storms across parts of NW lower Michigan also produced heavy rainfall and flash flooding in multiple locations, including washing out a roadway in Antrim county that resulted in one injury.

Began near Bingham (44.8800, -85.6800).
