| episode_narrative | Severe thunderstorms caused scattered tree and power line damage before becoming explosive and dropping two tornadoes in Dane County near Waunakee. Two funnel clouds were also reported. The first tornado moved east-northeast along Highway 19 just west of Waunakee, damaging 3 homes and 2 outbuildings and destroying a barn and a garage. The second, larger tornado, touched down just west of Highway 113 southeast of Waunakee, and then moved east-southeast across a housing development along and near River Road. It eventually crossed the Yahara River swamp area, hopped and skipped across the Cherokee development, and lifted east of W. Sherman Ave in the northern part of Maple Bluff. This second tornado injured 1 person, damaged 17 homes, and 3 farm buildings. One home sustained major damage, and a pole barn was destroyed. After nightfall the storm's forces took the form of damaging lightning, heavy rains and additional destructive winds. The Jefferson County fair closed early due to the storms. Six inches of rain in 3 hours caused urban street flooding in Dane County with standing water 6 to 8 inches deep in roads around Sun Prairie. Later, heavy rain measuring 1.93 inches caused street flooding in Sheboygan (Sheboygan Co) and flooded the basement of the public High School. Also in Sheboygan, lightning struck a home's TV antenna and shorted out an amplifier. |
