Metro Detroiters woke up Tuesday to continuing extreme heat, with temperatures in the 90s as the month of September began. That was until 7 p.m., when severe storms crawled through the northern counties of Southeast Michigan, with even a Tornado Warning being issued for St. Clair County. 

That system would enter Ontario, Canada, giving residents a break from storms until 11 p.m., where multiple counties were issued Severe T-Storm warnings going into the early morning hours of Wednesday.
