One of the striking aspects of this tornado is seeing the icy lake. In some videos you can actually see water getting flung anyway. Pretty unique situation.

Reed Timmer Incredible footage of a violent #tornado in Union City today which would be the first EF4+ tornado in Michigan since 1977 https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1DpKWJyFtP/

Awful day. .74” now on the day.

See BLIsnowman's chart. No long term trend, though there have been dry/wet cycles back to the mid 1800s.

I found some pictures of it as formed over Union city.
