LANSING, Mich. — The Ingham County Emergency Management, along with the U.S. National Weather Service in Grand Rapids, surveyed the damage from Sunday's storms.
According to the Ingham County Emergency Management, they found evidence of an EF0 tornado in the Leslie area and an EF1 tornado north/northeast of Williamston.
To put this into perspective, August 2023's tornado was rated EF2 as its peak.
In addition, Ingham County Emergency Management says most of the county was hit by straight-line winds, which can sometimes be even stronger than a tornado.
The strong winds caused a tree to fall on a home in Stockbridge Township and kill a 56-year-old man, according to Ingham County Sheriff Scott Wriggelsworth.
Severe storms are possible on Wednesday, and Ingham County Emergency Management says they are keeping an eye on the weather.
In their Facebook post, the Ingham County Emergency Management outlines the tornado rating scale.
