Severe EF-3 Tornado Causes Extensive Damage Across Wisconsin

A powerful EF-3 tornado has left a destructive trail across Wisconsin, particularly affecting the Fox Valley area, including Menasha, Appleton, and Neenah. As the communities begin cleanup efforts, Governor Evers has declared a state of emergency to address the extensive storm damage. The tornado, which stayed on the ground for over 20 minutes, resulted in thousands of homes losing power and led to curfews and boil-water orders in several towns. Emergency crews are actively working to restore power and assist those impacted by the severe weather. Meanwhile, the National Weather Service confirmed wind speeds near 140 mph during the storm, marking it as one of the most intense tornadoes in recent memory.
