0517 PM     Tornado          3 SSE Klinger Lake      41.77N 85.51W
03/30/2025                   St. Joseph         MI   NWS Storm Survey

            Ground and aerial surveys confirm a weak EF0
            tornado began near the intersection of
            Olnhausen and Shimmel Rd where over a dozen
            pine trees were snapped and several others
            were uprooted. The tornado proceeded quickly
            northeast removing an empty grain bin and a
            portion of a pole barn roof west of the
            intersection of Fawn River and Stubey roads.
            The grain bin was thrown into power lines
            along Fawn River Road, possibly aiding in
            the damage to several snapped power poles.
            Spans of a center pivot were rolled once.
            The tornado then continued across open
            fields to west of Balk Rd and US 12 where
            trees were blown down onto power lines. A
            piece of metal from the barn roof was
            wrapped around a pole several feet off the
            ground. Another center pivot was damaged
            northeast of this intersection. The tornado
            then dissipated shortly thereafter. Path of
            3.57 miles and maximum width of 300 yards.
