Well where I live in Portage we are about 1/2 a mile from the Fox River and they built a levee at the farm next to us and the river went over the levee and all the corn is DONE! I'd say it has been one bad, bad day.

Wow, the past 2-3 hours have been wild, and there is more on the way.
Apparently south of us, in Fond du Lac it's really bad as well as over in Ripon. 41 is closed in some locations.

Hopefully the bad ends soon. We have been lucky up north here (knocking on wood). Flood warnings but nothing to major.

Stay safe everyone, it is bad out there! Looking at the radar, storms backed up all the way to Iowa again, following the same path, this is crazy!

Good morning everyone.
I hope everyone made it safely thru the night. We got a lot of rain, the winds weren't bad, so we luck out.

we had alot of rain and alot of the roads around waupun are closed. my dh had to take a really long way to get to work just outside of fox lake. one of the horse farms has so much water that the horses need to be moved because the water from the small river is now making a lake up the the barn. we also have lost some of our pasture for our horses so now they are once again stuck by the barn and only have a few acres. and not to mention that we have also lost our first crop of hay. I really hope that every body is ok because these things are just things and you can replace them but you can not replace people. I hope that everybody is staying out of the water as much as possible some of the junk that is mixed in just isn't worth getting sick over. Good luck to everybody.
