13 tornadoes struck southeastern Michigan the evening of July 2, 1997.

Michigan tornadoes occur most frequently from April until July and can strike without warning. Knowing the signs of severe weather and what to do can save your life.

On Friday Gaylord, Michigan was hit by an EF-3 tornado which packed damaging winds up to 140 miles per hour. If you're looking to help out, there are several ways you can do so.

If you are without power from the severe weather this week, it may be a while before service is restored. Consumers Energy is reporting that some areas left without power from the strong storms that have rolled over the region may not have service restored until Sunday.
