| Episode Narrative |
Isolated severe storms affected southeast Wisconsin with large hail and strong winds gusting to around 56 knots (65 mph). Synoptically, low pressure moved northeast through the La Crosse area while a warm front pushed north to a Marquette to Sheboyban county line. Daytime maximum temperatures reached the 70s while surface dewpoints peaked in the 50s. Clusters or short lines of storms were generated. |
| Event Narrative |
In addition to the hail, wind gusts were in the 35 to 43 knot range (40 to 50 mph), resulting in some broken small branches. |
