episode_narrativeOn a day one would not expect any tornadoes, a couple tornadoes did manage to spin up in southern Wisconsin. A fairly abnormal weather situation developed during the early afternoon hours of June 18th. After a large area of stratiform rain moved east out of Wisconsin, a line of scattered thunderstorms developed on the western edge of the rain shield. Two storms developed supercellular characteristics and produced a couple tornadoes - one that moved from Dodge County into Washington County, and another brief one in Dane county. In addition, a couple funnel clouds were reported. Specific details of both tornadoes are found above. Synoptically, a trough pushed through south-central and southeast Wisconsin during the late morning and afternoon hours. A moist airmass left behind from morning rain allowed for low cloud base heights. Sufficient low-level vertical wind shear was present for rotating storms. Once rotation was evident in the thunderstorms, tornadoes were easily formed because of low cloud heights and decent low-level CAPE.
