Suspected tornado in southwest suburbs of Grand Rapids, MI about 10:30 pm.

It's after 1:00 & still thundering. My satellite has been disrupted since 10:15 or so. I live on far NE side so it missed us but quite a light show & torrential rain & flooding. It was a surprise--no storm watches at all. I guess they can't catch them all. No injuries reported yet.

Just light rain up in Traverse City. I hope you have clear skies tomorrow!
