huronicane Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 Wolverine Alley is pretty plain to see, but what I find very interesting is the 6 tornadoes in Dickinson County in the Upper Peninsula. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartyOn Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 July 2nd 1997 was another more recent event in which "wolverine alley" did see action. That day was something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartyOn Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 After reading more into the 97 outbreak I came across a snip it from DTX i thought was rather interesting. There were 13 recorded tornados in southeast MI that day but that could have different. *Prior to 1994 tornadoes were classified as a distinct tornado if there was a 5 miles break between damage paths. After 1994, this standard was change to 2 miles between damage paths. Had the 5 mile rule been in place, the number of tornadoes in Southeast Michigan during the July 2, 1997 Outbreak would have been between 7 and 13.
