Morning Briefing May 25, 2021: Dozens protest Black woman s firing from Detroit s Green Dot Stables, a look at Michigan s 2nd deadliest tornado from 1896

Metro Detroit weather: Get set to sweat

Before getting to the forecast, I’d be remiss not to mention that today is the 125th anniversary of Michigan’s second deadliest tornado:  The Great Cyclone of 1896.  It’s one of only four F5 tornadoes ever to hit Michigan, and I’ve spent the past five months researching this monster twister…diving into 125 year-old newspaper coverage, old original photos of the aftermath, and even traveling along the tornado’s path.  I hope you can join me on Local 4 at 6:40 a.m. for my exclusive, special report.  It’s a truly horrific story that most people have never heard.  See you then.
