On June 18th small clusters of storms moved northeast through southeastern Wisconsin ahead of a cold front. Wet microbursts and macrobursts generated powerful wind gusts of 65 to 87 knots (75 to 100 mph) that toppled large trees, damaged power-lines and power-poles, and pushed over vehicles. Localized flash flooding was reported. Maximum afternoon air temperatures reached the mid to upper 80s with dewpoints in the mid to upper 60s. About 19,400 customers lost electrical service.
