Menominee Power Outages Caused by Weather

Events

June 15, 2022 - Thunderstorm Wind

The NWS storm survey team observed widespread damage from Faithorn to Hermansville with several structures severely damaged and thousands of trees uprooted or snapped off. Downed trees and powerlines resulted in impassable roads. |The NWS survey team also concluded that the damage was characteristic of intense straight line winds of 100 to 110 mph. This is supported by radar data which showed a classic descending rear inflow jet (strong high altitude winds descending to the ground) surging northeastward across this area. In addition, the downed trees fell in mainly the same direction along with signs of divergent flow in the damage pattern.

A gusty southwest wind turned sharply to the northwest soon after the frontal passage, and wind gusts approaching 60 mph blew down trees and caused power outages on the Keweenaw Peninsula.
