PORTAGE, Mich. β€” A massive tree limb came down in a Portage neighborhood, leaving behind significant damage that stretched across several yards on Cromwell Street, just off Romence Road.

The falling limb took out a wooden fence and landed in a swimming pool.

"Storm came through, didn't think it was that damaging but you see that it was. Look at the area here of that one branch from this tree. This is just one branch," a neighbor pointed out.

At one point after the storms, more than 130,000 Consumers Energy customers were left without power.
