The McHenry County Sherriff's Office in Illinois is reminding folks to strap and secure their load on windy days. You might end up like this Illinois man whose couch blew into a tree.
Spring has nice qualities about it like blooming plant life and the start of warmer weather, but that doesn't change the fact that it's Michigan's worst season, and we have the receipts to prove it.
While Michigan happens to sit North enough to not always be in the direct path of “Tornado Alley”, we are no stranger to experiencing tornadoes. Perhaps the most dangerous thing about tornadoes is the fact that they can range in severity. Like earthquakes, tornadoes don’t have a constant size, wind speed, movement, etc. Meaning the amount of destruction to people's lives always varies.
We may think it's pretty miserable during the colder months here in the Mitten State, but exactly how do we rank compared to everyone else across the country?
