Severe weather damage check-in!
Marinette County: All we got was some light rain for a few minutes. WBAY is saying that there's damage in Dodge County, and in Madison. How are you doing out there?

1. Don't know about Dodge or Madison,
but Manitowoc is okay as far as I know.

2. Brown Deer, just a little rain.
Was at the YMCA all this time, and found nothing more than wet pavement. No broken branches or anything.

4. Just wet in Milwaukee.
Once again this year, storms have slid to the north and south of us.

Howdy Brown Deer! I have some relatives near you.

3. Damage just a mile away
As Vote_Clark points out in the other thread, Westgate Cinema--which opens F 9/11 Friday--may have suffered some damage. Hope not!

5. Waukesha County had a tornado warning but no actual tornadoes
It seemed that most of the weather missed us entirely -- we got two 10-minute bursts of rain, and some wind.

6. We were so lucky
Edited on Thu Jun-24-04 09:50 AM by sybylla
The worst of a line of storms that produced a tornado or two went just south of us here in central WI. We got a lot of rain and wind, but nothing nasty. I heard there were trees down south of us with .75" hail. On the radio this morning they reported a tornado touched down last night near Wisconsin Rapids southeast of here.

We got hit pretty hard in 2002 with golfball-sized hail and 90mpg winds.
Our house was resided and reroofed last year because of it. I don't want to go through that again for a very long time. I know my insurance company would drop me in an instant if we had been hit yesterday. I'm sending good thoughts to all those in the line of fire. I hope all is well with DUers across the state this morning.

7. Green Bay here, sirens sounded twice last night, we basically escaped
the brunt of it-Kaukauna and Little Chute got hit hard.
There were those fucking CHEMTRAILS everywhere yesterday in N.E. to S.W. applications, too.

9. Scary night
I live in Appleton and the sirens were going nuts. My best friends house is 1/4 mile from the Little Chute Tornado touchdown. It was only down for a second so they are ok. Plus my wife was at another friends house in Kaukauna only 1/2 mile from the other touchdown. This was one of the scariest nights of my life!!

"It was a dark and stormy night!"
