Tuesday afternoon and evening saw a line of thunderstorms moving across Southwest Lower Michigan. Parts of Grand Rapids, especially Kentwood and East Grand Rapids, had numerous tree branches and several trees knocked down by the strong winds. Strong winds can be seen approaching the radar on the right side of the animation below. Rain was intense but brief with many locations reporting an inch or more in half an hour or less.
Shortly after 8 PM, the line of storms reached the city of Jackson and produced extensive power outages on the west side due to numerous tree limbs coming down on power lines. A large tree also fell on a vehicle and briefly trapped a woman and her young child.
