Deaths and injuries are direct and indirect together, as the offices filed them. Damage is property and crops in the dollars of the year, not adjusted for inflation, and only where an office estimated it.
The episode as NWS MKX wrote it up.
A cold front and upper trough brought scattered thunderstorms with large hail and damaging winds during the late afternoon and early evening hours.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Milwaukee, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 7, 1:40 PM CST, 3 hours 14 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI 240 PM CDT FRI JUL 7 2017 .TONIGHT - Forecast Confidence...Medium. Water vapor/RAP animation shows fairly compact vort center dropping southeast from vcnty of wrn Lake Superior. Influence of this wave and some colder temps aloft will keep the chance of shra/tsra going into the mid evening hours. Already seeing a fair amount of precip development across NW WI. So going forecast pops look reasonable. Once the precip diminishes things quiet down for the remainder of the night. .SATURDAY - Forecast Confidence...Medium. Mid level flow remains strong from the northwest though little if any perturbations are proggd so the going dry forecast looks good. In the low levels an anticyclonic flow is expected. 925 temps will be in the 16-18c range with warmest temps inland away from influence of any onshore component. .SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY - Forecast Confidence...Medium. Short term guidance a bit less aggressive on developing warm front and moisture return spreading into southern WI on Sunday. Low level jet Sunday afternoon and evening looks to focus on northern IL and IA. Even 12z ECMWF has backed off on stronger low level moisture convergence in southern WI. However will keep smaller chances for T going Sunday afternoon and night. Better chance for convection over northern WI during this time period due to passing upper level jet, and some of the activity may sag southward into southern WI. Better chance for more widespread convection later Sunday night into Monday as low level jet reinvigorates and nose of jet shifts farther northward into southern WI, shifting warm front into the area. Precipitable water will increase to around 1.7 inches by 00z/11 which is above the 90th percentile for southern WI. Ensemble Situational Awarness standardized anomolies getting close to 2 units for pwat and mean specific humidity in the low levels. Deep warm cloud deth over 11k feet expected by afternoon. However Corfidi Vectors and storm motion showing 10-20 kts which is so-so for flash flooding concerns. Would like to see more persistent and stronger low level convergence into the area on Monday. For now will mention threat of heavy rainfall in Hazardous Weather Outlook for Monday. .EXTENDED PERIOD... MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY - Forecast Confidence...Medium. The unsettled conditions look to continue through mid-week as upper level steering winds back slightly to more zonal flow. Zonal flow will ensure deeper atmospheric moisture will remain close by after frontal boundary slips just to the south Monday night. GFS and ECMWF in reasonable agreement on strengthening low pressure trof in the northern plains on Tuesday, sweeping east later Wednesday into early Thursday. Frontal boundary to the south will likely move back north into southern WI during this period increasing the threat of storms. 00Z ECMWF brings weak low pressure across southern WI on Wednesday which would increase the severe weather and heavy rain risk into the evening. Drier conditions look to return late in the week. && .AVIATION (21Z TAFS)... No changes to TAFS with shra/tsra development across NW WI trending southeast. Expect this within srn WI in the 21-03z time frame. Water vapor shows circulation vcnty western lake Superior dropping southeast so some of the DCVA associated with this will arrive and aid in the development despite the low level cool advection underway. VFR CU field along and west of lake breeze boundary. Bufkit shows several hundred J/KG of skinny CAPE so the going POPS/timing look overall quite good at the moment. Once this settles down towards mid evening it looks quiet into Saturday with high pressure taking hold. && .MARINE...Winds and waves are expected to remain below small craft levels through the weekend. Onshore flow of 10 knots or less expected on Saturday. && .MKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... WI...None. LM...None. TONIGHT AND SATURDAY/AVIATION/MARINE...PC SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY...MBK
