Black Lake, Michigan tornado, photo by Nathan Krinsky
About this tornado that was part of the October 18, 2007 tornado outbreak, Jeff Masters, Senior Meteorologist and founder of Michigan-based weather super-site The Weather Underground writes:
This tornado was rated EF1 with winds up to 94 mph. Damage consisted of a barn destroyed just north of M-68. The sporadic damage path up through Black Lake was 1/8 mile wide and around 10 miles long. Some tree damage was seen around Black Lake. The photo taken by Nathan Krinsky from the back deck of his home on Black Lake in northern Michigan, 15 miles southeast of Cheboygan. The sun was setting at 5:25 pm EDT when this photo was taken, and if you look closely, you can see a rainbow, thanks to the spray kicked up by the tornado.

That is truly a thing of beauty. Makes you think about storm chasing. But I hear tornadoes are pretty rare in the fall (or waterspouts for that matter).
