episode_narrativeScattered thunderstorms developing around the noon hour became more numerous and intensified to severe levels over southern Wisconsin by evening. Hardest hit was Rock County where two gustnadoes roared through the Clinton area producing winds estimated at 70 to 80 mph, toppling trees and power lines, and causing damage to 15 homes. Residents of Beloit and Janesville, also in Rock County, were left without electricity overnight due to widespread tree and power line damage from thunderstorm winds. Elsewhere, scattered tree and power line damage was reported with numerous wind gusts between 60 and 70 mph raking southcentral and southeast Wisconsin. A great financial and historical loss was suffered at Taliesin (Iowa Co.) where a 220 year old oak tree crashed into the studio wing of the architectural landmark. So many trees were toppled in Tower Hill State park near Taliesin that the park was closed to the public for several days. Lightning and torrential rains played havoc in isolated areas with a home fire reported in Nashotah of Waukesha county and 5 people incurring temporary electrical shock in Janesville of Rock county. A few rainfall totals included 2.6 inches near Cuba city in Lafayette county and 2.67 inches measured at the Madison's Dane County Regional Airport. At one point 4 inches of standing water was reported in the streets of Madison that evening.
