Wider weather episode

Severe thunderstorms formed in very unstable air ahead of a passing cold front. The worst of the damage from the storms occurred across east-central and parts of northeast Wisconsin. Thunderstorm winds downed numerous trees and some power lines, hail as large as golf balls fell, and a weak tornado touched down on the east side of Green Bay (Brown Co.). Heavy rain led to flooding in parts of east-central Wisconsin as the storms formed an east-west line that slowly moved southeast.
