EF1 tornado in Racine County, Wisconsin

The tornado developed northwest of Honey Creek Road and then hit a barn along the road, shifting it off of its foundation. The tornado then continued southeast toward Waterford, removing sheet metal from a shed along Buena Park Rd. The tornado then continued through the north side and downtown Waterford where most of the damage was to trees and houses from the trees falling on them. A few trees were noted to have been lofted and dropped into the Fox River. The tornado then continued through the east side of Waterford before ending near Highway 36.

Numerous severe thunderstorms developed across southern Wisconsin during the afternoon and evening hours as a wave of low pressure moved across a stationary front over the region. Two main supercell thunderstorms developed along and north of Interstate 94 between Madison and Milwaukee, which produced softball sized hail and an EF-2 tornado. These storms would later merge while a squall line developed in south central Wisconsin which would then track through southeast Wisconsin. Elsewhere, a few storms had brief rotations show up, producing a tornado near Endeavor. The supercell thunderstorms and squall line trained over the same locations producing flash flooding mainly in urban areas.
