Thanks for the great report Cathie. I dug up some more information on the 4 confirmed tornadoes from the Gaylord MI NWS website. I didn’t see an F2 tornado in this report – 2 F0 and 2 F1 tornadoes and they didn’t use Lapeer that I could see. But they mentioned the same counties you did. Perhaps the F2 tornado you reported from Lapeer was evaluated for strength under further review after this NWS report, found at the following NWS website:

Hi again Cathie. I double checked the location of Lapeer and found it considerably south of the Gaylord MI forecast office area of responsibility (AOR). It showed up in Google Maps east of Flint and within the Detroit/Pontiac NWS forecast office AOR. So I went to their page and unfortunately they apparently did not go out to Lapeer that I could see and check out this tornado and issue a report like the Gaylord office did. The NWS office out of Detroit/Pontiac does have a limited storm report for August 28, and it is at this website:
https://www.weather.gov/dtx/svrwx180828
I found out that the F2 tornado was just north east of West Branch. It wasn’t Lapeer.
Thanks Cathie. Makes more sense. I found West Branch on my Large Print Road Atlas. Looks like it is about 20-30 miles SE of Gaylord off of I-75. I just love travel and following routes with good maps. I was always the navigator on family trips while growing up.
