May 25, 1896

A cluster of five tornadoes north of Detroit killed 50 people on May 25, 1896, making it the second-deadliest tornado outbreak in Michigan history.

1964 Macomb County tornado

Thirteen people were killed, and 400 were injured on May 8, 1964, by a tornado that went through Chesterfield Township between Mount Clemens and New Baltimore in Macomb County.

Thousands were left homeless by the F5 storm, which caused $7 to $8 million in property damage -- equivalent to $55 to $63 million in today's dollars.
