Anybody catch the A-10 callsign this afternoon before 2pm? Something 31 x 2. I first caught them on 363.200 DTW A/D, then they went to 290.425 Cleve.C. think they were dodging those thunderstorms on departure. I was out shopping so I couldn't keep listening.

I don't have a good milair setup, but it sounds like camp grayling is going to be active tonight (listening on MPSCS). I think there is a B52 circling east of I75 around 19,000ft, between Grayling and Indian River.
