The remnants of Atlantic Tropical Cyclone Cristobal lifted across Lake Superior and into northern Ontario. Multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms developed on the 10th. A line of severe thunderstorms brought damaging winds to places near Saginaw Bay. Later in the day, training thunderstorms brought heavy rain to Traverse City. And some lakeshore flooding also occurred on the northwest lower Michigan coastline, thanks to gusty onshore winds.
