Here is my short account that Scott talked of...
This was 2 miles SE of Wisconsin Dells. Its about a mile in front of me.
(Doesnt look like it cause I have my 14mm lens on.) (The picture is also
cropped.)
Then around the Portage area, just sw of it actually I saw what I am
calling a wedge tornado. It could be a meso on the ground, but it sure
looked mean.
EDIT: After reviewing video and based on other reports, I am 99% convinced this was a tornado at this time.
Here it is closer. Soon after this picture as I was scooping up the
cameras, you could hear the roar, and the wind really picked up from the
west (left side of screen)
And now for the oddity of the chase... Its 6-6-06 and my odometer read
666 the whole chase. I have 166,6xx.x miles on my van, so for one
hundred miles during the heat of the chase it read 666. \m/
