From our media partner at WOOD TV:

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Consumers Energy says could take until 11:30 p.m. Sunday to restore power to everyone who lost service during deadly storms early Friday morning.

Some of the hardest hit areas, including Grand Rapids, may not have power restored until Monday according to Consumers Energy.

A Grand Haven man was killed when a tree fell on his home, authorities said.

At one point, more than 156,000 homes and businesses throughout Michigan were without power due to the fast-moving storms, which packed winds of up to 91 mph, heavy rain, thunder and lightning. Consumers Energy spokesman Roger Morgenstern said 98,000 of those outages were in West Michigan, including many on the lakeshore.
