Episodic thunderstorms the past three days resulted in patches 1.5 to 4 inches of rain in West Michigan. The Holland area had 3 to 4 inch totals the last three days, a big turnaround compared to the 4 to 5 inch totals from the entire three-month span of June, July, and August.

Here are the rotation tracks (NROT) of the tornadic supercells from Tuesday. Notice the two distinct rotation tracks that followed nearly the same path from Decatur through Portage to Battle Creek. #miwx

This is all that’s left of a strip mall at the corner of Oakland and Centre in Portage after a #tornado this evening. @JuliaGorman10 just spoke with a man who was INSIDE this building when it collapsed around him. We’ll share that interview with you as soon as we can on @wzzm13

13 On Your Side WEATHER ALERT: A Tornado Warning has been issued for Van Buren until May 07 5:45PM. Take cover now! More at: bit.ly/Tornado_Warnin… #wmiwx #miwx #WestMichigan #13OYS @wzzm13 @13OYSwx


A good reminder of a watch vs warning as we have a tornado watch in effect for a portion of West Michigan until later tonight.

As we have chances for severe thunderstorms today & tomorrow it is a good time to review the difference between a watch and a warning. A WATCH means the ingredients are present for severe weather to develop A WARNING means it is happening and you should take action.
