The National Weather Service has confirmed nine tornadoes, mostly in mid-Michigan, amid Sunday's weather. One more report in Branch County is still under investigation. All of them were rated EF-1 or EF-0. The confirmed list includes a small tornado, rated EF-O, that hit along Wabash Road near Milan in Monroe County

No joke, Michigan’s March weather didn’t follow the usual pattern, according to folklore. With deadly ice storms, strong winds and even a few tornados closing out the month, Mother Nature decided to reverse the old saying about March coming in like a lion and going out like a lamb.

The highest chance of severe wind gusts is in the southern third of Lower Michigan. Even the middle third of Lower Michigan is in a 15 percent to 29 percent chance of some severe wind gusts. Also notice all of us in southern Michigan have the black hatched area, meaning 75 mph gusts are possible.
