A denial of aid from the Federal Emergency Management Agency has been issued to Michigan. The state had appealed for individual assistance following deadly tornadoes in March. The tornadoes affected Branch, Cass, and St.

Joseph counties, resulting in four fatalities. The storms ranged in severity from EF-0 to EF-3. Further details on the denial and the state's response are available from the source.

Michigan State Police indicate that the state will continue to work with affected communities and provide support to survivors.
