Hurricane Lili might affect Michigan weather patterns.
Climatologists say moisture from the hurricane may travels
towards the state. They also say as the moisture settles here in
Mid-Michigan, residents will see more rain in the next few days.
Hurricanes do not occur in Michigan because there is no warm
water source for the storm to use as a source of energy.
Hurricanes are known for their powerful winds, but other factors
like the rise in ocean water and heavy precipitation play a
larger role in causing hurricane damage. Climatologists say mid-
Michigan is not safe from other meteorological events like
thunderstorms. They say thunderstorms can cause just as much
devastation across the state.
