Tornado Archive

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has been tracking tornadoes for decades. This interactive map, which contains data from January 1950 to February 29, 2024, pinpoints where a cyclone touched down and traces its path of destruction. For more recent tornadoes, clicking deeper provides more details, damage estimates and whether someone was injured or killed in the storm.

Summary

A cold front tracked west to east across western and central Wisconsin during the afternoon and evening hours of July 14th. Severe thunderstorms developed along the cold front and produced severe wind gusts, funnel clouds, large hail and one tornado. The severe winds knocked trees down onto power lines and caused power outages across portions of central and western Wisconsin. Trained spotters estimated hail up to two inches in diameter near Osseo in Trempealeau County. The severe thunderstorms also produced an EF1 tornado in northern Jackson and southern Clark Counties. These storms also produce very heavy rain which caused flash flooding across southern Jackson, northern Monroe and Richland Counties. Law enforcement reported several roads closed due to water over roads and washouts. Cooperative observers and amateur radio operators reported rainfall amounts ranging from three to seven inches across southern Jackson and northern Monroe Counties.

*** Enhanced Fujita Scale describes the strength of the tornado based on the amount and type of damage caused by the tornado. The F-scale of damage will vary in the destruction area; therefore, the highest value of the F-scale is recorded for each event. EF0 – Light Damage (40 – 72 mph), EF1 – Moderate Damage (73 – 112 mph), EF2 – Significant damage (113 – 157 mph), EF3 – Severe Damage (158 – 206 mph), EF4 – Devastating Damage (207 – 260 mph), EF5 – Incredible Damage (261 – 318 mph)
