Severe Thunderstorms, Wyandotte, MI 7/2/08 (Part 1)

A video of the severe thunderstorms that moved through Wyandotte, MI on July 2, 2008. It started as an intense line of thunderstorms near Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo, MI. It moved across the state at 60 mph, but slowed to 40 mph by the time it reached Wyandotte. Damage was reported west of here, but it weakened considerably by the time it got here as usual. There was intense lightning, as shown in the video, and the power went out and came back on quickly from a big lightning strike nearby in Part 3. Comment and Enjoy!

Good job. I remember those big storms. My brother was staying at someone's house while that person wasn't there, and a tree was blown down there.

Outstanding description and views of storm. Really enjoyed your videos.  Hope to see more in 2010 and 11. Thanks.

I had this Severe Thunderstorm, the clouds were so dark that the national weather service issued a Tornado Watch. We did see some funnels but they did not touch down.
