Michigan Population-
Though Michigan's population grew by 2% between the 2010 and 2020 censuses, most Michigan counties lost residents, according to data released Thursday.
Of Michigan's 83 counties, 50 lost residents over the 10-year period.
And no counties lost residents at higher rates than ones in the Upper Peninsula.
Michigan's fastest-shrinking counties, in percentage terms, were:
· Luce County, in the eastern U.P., where the population dropped 19.5%, to 5,339
· Ontonagon County, in the western U.P., which slipped 14.2%, to 5,816
· Gocebic County, in the western U.P., which lost 12.5% of its residents, leaving it with 14,380
· Isabella County, in the central Lower Peninsula, where the population dropped 8.4%, to 64,394
· Baraga County, in the western U.P., which slipped 7.9%, to 8,158
Though the above five counties shrank the most in percentage terms, none of them was tops in Michigan for losing the most residents.
Michigan's five fastest growing counties since the last census were:
- Ottawa County in western Michigan, up 12% to 296,200;
- Grand Traverse County, in the northern Lower Peninsula, up 9.5% to 95,238;
- Kent County, in western Michigan, up 9% to 657,974;
- Allegan County in western Michigan, up 8% to 120,502; and
- Washtenaw County, where Ann Arbor is the county seat, up 8% to 372,258
Now overall…In Metro Detroit, Macomb County grew by 5% to 881,217; Oakland grew by 6% to 1.27 million and Wayne dropped by 1.5% to 1.8 million.
Truthfully… I blame https://www.youtube.com/user/Movingmi ana The Detroiter Paul Wolfert for the fact Novi, Michigan and Oakland County is growing. Come on Paul there’s too many people here already I just want to people to stop buying all the monster rehabs up.

Storm updates-
Tornado in Southwest Michigan-
The Wednesday night storm that swept across the state leaving power outages and flooding in its wake caused a tornado in Dorr Township, the National Weather Service in Grand Rapids confirmed.
The tornado is classified as an EF0, which is the weakest category on the scale and consists of wind speeds between 65 and 85 miles per hour.
More than 800,000 Michiganders lost power over the last two days after severe thunderstorms and strong winds uprooted trees and knocked down powerlines. Some 400,000 residents still remained powerless as of 6:30 a.m. on Friday.
Consumers Energy spokesperson Brian Wheeler said most customers will get their power back by the end of the day on Saturday, and they expect to finish by the end of the day on Sunday.
He said they have over 550 crews working 16-hour shifts to help the 157,000 customers that remain without power.
Most residents should have power restored to their homes by Sunday according to DTE.
Storms overall-
NOAA.org- July 2021 was the hottest month ever in the history of the entire world. Not because of Christopher Melonis photoshoot that apparently brought people out of the closet or Brittney Spears Instagram pics. Climate Change may infact be real as now we have evidence in our face that’s more valid than Mike Lindells 72 hour Live Stream.
Daily rainfall records were broken in Detroit (2.73 inches) and Flint (1.32 inches) for August 12th as a result of the heavy rainfall we saw overnight-this morning.
August 11th Storms- https://www.weather.gov/dtx/SevereThunderstorms-August-11-12-2021
Two rounds of thunderstorms impacted Southeastern Michigan on August 11: the first during the afternoon and the second during the late evening into the following morning. The first round produced widespread severe wind gusts across the area between 3 and 5pm as a well-organized line swept eastward across the state. This line knocked out power for hundreds of thousands of customers as widespread tree and power line damage occurred. A wind gust of 75 mph was measured in Mt. Clemens and prompted the issuance of NWS Detroit's first "Destructive" Severe Thunderstorm Warning. A lull in activity followed for much of the evening before the next round of storms tracked eastward across the region after 10pm. Severe reports were more isolated with this round, but abundant moisture moved in and led to repeated rounds of training thunderstorms that resulted in prolonged heavy rain and flooding overnight. Flash Flood Warnings were issued for Livingston County and the Detroit Metro region where some areas saw 3 to 5 inches of rain. Additional severe storms occurred the early morning of the 12th along and south of the I-94 corridor before storms finally moved out. In all, 9 Severe Thunderstorm Warnings, 2 Flash Flood Warnings, and 3 Special Marine Warnings were issued.
According to DTE and Consumers Energy outage reports, nearly 850,000 customers across the state lost power due to the storms on August 11 as well as a round of storms on the 10th.
AUGUST 9- Scattered storms continue through mid afternoon across SE MI. A few will be strong to locally severe with gusts in excess of 50 mph possible. Heavy rainfall leading to poor drainage flooding also a threat.
Taken from NOAA.org and Weather.gov on August 13th 2021.. In an attempt to find out the last time it didn’t rain or storm in some form in an entire day I gave up after going back 10 days and everything was just rain and storms.

BIG GRETCH ADDRESSES THE WEATHER SITUATION-
“FIX THE INFRASTRUCTURE AND BLAME CLIMATE CHANGE”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhHN0HZWqY0
July-

THE ANSWER
Yes, if passed, the bill would create a pilot program, to evaluate the effectiveness and practicability of a per-mile user fee. Participants who volunteer to be in the study, will pay mileage fees, although they will be refunded by the government.
WHAT WE FOUND
The Verify team received multiple emails from viewers, who were curious about the proposed per-mile user fee.
"Does president Biden's infrastructure Bill contain a pilot program to test mileage tax," asked a viewer named Doris.
The claim has been spreading on social media as well. To find out the truth, the Verify team looked to the bill itself, and got context from experts in the field.
Details of the proposed pilot program can be found on page 508 of the bill, in section 13002, titled "National Motor Vehicle Per-Mile User Fee Pilot."
THE ANSWER
Yes. The bill mandates that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration must create rules mandating that alcohol monitoring systems be required for all new cars. However, the text in the bill does not support the use of breathalyzers.
WHAT WE KNOW
The claim about alcohol monitoring systems has received a lot of attention, especially from those critical about the expansiveness of the bill. But advocates against drunk driving have celebrated the policy.
Infrastructure bill would mandate vehicles have alcohol monitoring systems
A bipartisan infrastructure bill that was passed in the Senate Tuesday takes things a step further. It is a trillion-dollar plan to fix the country's roads and bridges.
Yet halfway through the plan, on page 1,066, there's a requirement involving the cars we'll be purchasing six years from now. They'll have to contain alcohol monitoring systems.
Start from 2019 or older. People share information on Facebook about old Venture holdings that correlate Democrat’s gender is belief, just as much as Republicans shared. Very late too. Immigration that sees misinformation.
On today's episode, we're going to discuss. In that role, social media plays. And how? We have our ideas. And the reinforcement and the belief system. That we have and how we contradict. Our own opinion with information that is old. So why is the information that we are sharing and using to have our opinion that we strongly bold
So boldly declare. We want student loans forgiven. We want equality income for all Americans. But not just for a few. How could we ever? Forgive one thing is that or. Change anything else. When?
The Cuomo Situation-
Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced that he would resign by Aug. 24 in the wake of a report alleging serial sexual harassment.
Cuomo did not take responsibility for the charges but added that the New York state government would not be able to focus on the COVID-19 pandemic if he remained in office. Cuomo claimed that he meant to be “endearing” and “was joking” in his interactions with women, but that he did not sexually harass them.
