The U.P. had an actual tornado this past week. It was major news. The Marquette Mining Journal has had it as a headline/front page news on their website for multiple days now. This area rarely experiences tornadoes. Granted, it was probably the lowest setting for a tornado, an EF-0, but the National Weather Service says, yes, actual tornado. Based on what was visible on social media, residents closest to the event reacted as though they've been tornado watching in Alabama or Arkansas for decades: lots of video taken by people who decided the best place to be while observing an approaching twister was on their front porch filming it.
