Three of the homes suffered only minor damage, but the fire got into the drywall of the fourth home and caused more substantial damage.
A newspaper reported that 5 utility poles were blown down in thunderstorm winds along US-12 in Saline. Three of the poles came down onto moving cars. No injuries were reported.
