episode_narrativeSeveral clusters of thunderstorms, some severe, rumbled across southcentral and southeast Wisconsin during the evening hours of the 8th into the early morning hours of the 9th. Many large trees and power lines were knocked down by the powerful thunderstorm winds. Scattered large hail was also reported. A church and a car in Fond du Lac (Fond du Lac Co.) sustained considerable wind damage. A power transformer on Highway 23 in the city of Fond du Lac took a direct lightning hit. In Sheboygan (Sheboygan Co.), several large tents were leveled in a Rotary Club event in the city park. About 2000 customers were without electrical power in the Germantown area of southern Washington County due to lightning striking power poles. In addition, lightning struck a TV antenna on a New Berlin residence and damaged the home's TV, electrical sockets, and computer. Rainfall amounts of 1.5 to 2 inches in the city of Waukesha (Waukesha Co.) resulted in urban flooding in the pre-dawn hours. Several roads were blocked by water levels reaching 1 to 2 feet in low spots.
