6-19-17 storm clean-up continues

Clean up is continuing  in northeast Wisconsin following two storms in three days including a tornado outbreak last Wednesday afternoon.  National Weather Service meteorologist J.J. Wood says there were ten confirmed tornadoes that touched down in Green Lake, Shawano, Winnebago, Outagamie and Brown counties Wednesday.  While ten twisters is a lot, Wood says the state record is more than double that.  “The most for one day for Wisconsin is 27 and that was back on August 18th, 2005,”   Wood told AM 1170 WFDL’s Between the Lines program.  “If you remember that’s the day of the Stoughton tornado just south of Madison.  That was an EF3 tornado.”   An EF-0 tornado touched down in southeast Fond du Lac County near Dundee Monday evening knocking down trees and power lines.
