A tornado, or possibly more than one, ripped through southwestern Michigan this week causing massive amounts of damage.
Unfortunately, there were multiple injuries and even a few deaths.
The amount of force that comes with tornadoes is other-worldly. They can uproot trees and destroy solid buildings in just moments.
The Detroit News reports:
4 dead, 12 hurt in suspected tornadoes in southwest Michigan
Four people were killed and 12 others injured when tornadoes ripped through southwest Michigan Friday afternoon, WOOD-TV reported.
Three people were killed when a tornado hit the Union City area, the Branch County Sheriff’s Office told WOOD-TV. Twelve people were injured in the same area
Of the 12 injured, three required hospitalization. The names of the dead were not released.
One person was confirmed dead after a tornado in the Edwardsburg area, the TV station reported.
“Our thoughts are with those who have lost family, friends, and property during this incident,” the sheriff’s office told the TV station.
Tornadoes ripped through parts of southwest Michigan Friday afternoon, destroying buildings, leveling trees, and knocking out power.
Social media users have shared a video of a twister causing damage in the Three Rivers area, including ripping the roof off a Menards store, pulling apart a storage unit and lifting cars in the parking lot of a strip mall along US-131.

This is the best perspective I’ve seen of the Union City, Michigan tornado. Good lord, it just tore up everything in its path, wouldn’t be surprised if this was intense (EF3+).

Prayers to the victims and their families. Also to anyone who lost their home or suffered other damage.
Nature can be scary.
