7-18-2019 michigan storm

[11B2620]

So I have no pictures, but, I am taking my tractor on trailer out around where I live moving and cutting trees. As a firefighter/first responder I need a good path. Our county does not let us know where trees are down. Today was the last day for now.... 3 foot wide oak tree across the roadway. An hour later its all taken care of and many thanks were given. Support for the community is what we lack nowadays..... Trying to bring back helping each other, one person at a time.

Very good for the community and your Soul.

Common practice out here in the sticks since county resources are limited. We did our round clearing trees a few weeks back.

OP states 7/18, but all storm reports are dated 7/20:

Maybe two separate events?

"As for restoration times, many areas appear to be undetermined. After the initial wave of storms Friday night and early Saturday, utilities across the state were saying Monday or early Tuesday would be the latest power restoration times its customers could expect. But after the second wave of storms Saturday, that may no longer be the case."
