Not only that, but by the looks/duration of that CC drop, one of the most significant in south-central Wisconsin in quite some time.
Edit: To your above, yup.

In addition, only 18 (well, I guess 19 now) tornadoes have touched down during meteorological winter in Wisconsin.

On-air met at my work relaying reports of substantial damage in the Edgerton area, although no specifics as of yet.

Should be storm chasers galore near by. Should start seeing images flood in. Hope nobody is hurt.On-air met at my work relaying reports of substantial damage in the Edgerton area, although no specifics as of yet.

Still can't believe scans showed debris lifted 20k feet in the air.

Yup. I've been by/through that interchange many times.

I don't think it's still on the ground, but if it is, direct hit on Fort Atkinson...

DOT camera at that junction is still streaming, so it's still intact and has power. Crazy lightning on it now. I-39/90 at US 51/WIS-73.

I was watching the traffic cam at the interchange where the travel plaza is located. There were very strong inflow winds visible, but I think if it was still on the ground, it passed just a scooch to the north and west of there.

Lemme just say if I had been working, we would have taken that camera on air (I'm on mornings, 3AM-noon, hence why I'm usually quite tired in the late afternoons and reserve my chases for higher-confidence setups unless I'm on vacation).
Extended the warning
There's actually a weak couplet near from Atkinson.
Here's video of the tornado when it was near Evansville

I expected something a little larger based on the CC drop. Must have been small but rather strong and hit a lot of stuff.

This was a weird one for me. Went not too far to my south (I loaded the cats in their carriers just in case), but I actually saw the hook on radar before the first warning was issued.
There's another video on X/Twitter from the traffic cam near the interchange when the storm went through, and thankfully it didn't seem too bad even though there looked to be a fair bit of traffic.
Hoping that the damage is limited, but that debris signature is worrying.

Apologies if this doesn't display correctly; I'm on my phone and normally I post here from my computer.

Glad you're OK! I had kinda wondered what part of the county you were in.
Can you link that video?

I live close to my spouse's employer, one of the bigger ones in the area. He's been there for over a decade, which makes him super old by the standard of most of their employees. That likely tells you where we are.
I should add that I was north of the warning polygon but it was close enough that my anxiety kicked in for getting pets ready, heh.
Here's the traffic cam video:

So, picturesque tornado that is the first ever in Wisconsin in February...nah, that's not foreboding for the spring season at all.

00Z NAM really holds onto instability and favorable wind fields, even with preceding convection for Monday. Definitely bears watching. Sounding from East-Central AL.
