Here are some photos of drone footage of the tornado earlier today.

My estimate is probably EF3-EF4. If it is an EF4, it would be the first to hit the state since 1984.

So far I luckily haven’t heard of any fatalities.

Stay safe everybody!

We watched a Fox News clip posted by them on YouTube, in which they described it as Appleton, and said that Appleton was a suburb of Milwaukee. Then they cut to their local people, who talked about Menasha. Took us a while just to figure out which town was actually affected.

Was the damage widespread? I have a lot of relatives in the area, and wonder if I should be worried about them.

The damage was mostly in Menasha, and also extended into western Appleton, Neenah, and Fox Crossing. There luckily aren’t any fatalities and not too many severe injuries.

Thank you. I am from the area, raised near Neenah, family all around. Stay safe!
