What the National Weather Service wrote

Photo evidence of a very short-lived tornado lofting dust underneath a funnel cloud was correlated with a rotational signature on radar near Merrillan.

The wider storm

During the evening hours on June 19th, a couple of severe storms produced large hail, damaging wind gusts and two brief tornadoes. One of these storms trekked through Trempealeau County where it produced golf ball sized hail in Osseo as well as a weak EF-0 tornado which resulted in minor damage. An additional tornado was documented in Jackson County, but no damage was verified which resulted in an EF-U rating.

Began near Merrillan (44.4403, -90.8071).
