Today, a weather alert has been issued for 53 million Americans in the Midwest, including voters in Michigan, due to severe weather threats. The region is expected to experience tornadoes, hail, and damaging winds up to 60 miles per hour. This weather system could potentially impact voters as they make their way to the polls.

The severe weather is attributed to a strong storm system moving through the Great Lakes region, with the possibility of strong storms and even snow overnight. The clash between an Arctic cold front and warm air is expected to trigger these severe conditions.
