Northern Midwest Spotters/Chasers

Hello All,

thought I'd open a thread for our people in the Minnesota/Wisconsin/Illinois area. I know severe occurrences like Tornadoes are few and far between, but this last year has certainly kept me busy. Any thoughts or experiences/photographs anyone would like to share regarding this area?

I'll share the few good pics I have from my phone as follows...new camera in the works (college has left me broke, yay)

August 2nd, series of Severe T-Storms (Tornado watch)


September 22, I believe this went Tornado Warning for Oconto county?


Edit: All these were taken within 30 miles of Green bay, near the Pulaski area

A little disappointing in Wisconsin this year. I did come across this pic from my phone though West of DePere on Aug 2nd ATTACH=full]10513[/ATTACH]

This year was pretty disappointing for eastern Missouri/southern Illinois. There was barely anything.

I was only disappointed that I missed the few tornadoes that rolled close to my location! They had a confirmed touchdown just north of Appleton in Late May/early June. I thought that was pretty intense. I only missed it due to being at my dayjob at the time.

Northern Illinois got all the love this year, haha. Might have to take a trip down near Gurnee again. Was on a trip back from Six Flags on June 20th and they went Tornado warned around 8pm.
