A tornado in Huron County reportedly injured six people, destroyed dozens of homes and left nearly two thousand people without power.
The National Weather Service confirmed a tornado bringing winds up to 120 mph touched down in Port Austin early Saturday evening.
The Huron County sheriff said the tornado’s path was approximately three and a half miles long.
Since the tornado hit, volunteers have mobilized and businesses opened up their services to help out anyone in need, in an outpour of local support.
