Tornado Hits Fox Valley Communities | Madison News
Description
A deadly tornado tore through the Fox Valley with 124 mph winds, triggering warnings across Lake Winnebago and leaving behind downed trees, power lines, and widespread damage in Appleton, Fond du Lac, and beyond. Thankfully, no fatalities were reported, though a few injuries were treated. Three communities—Neenah, Menasha, and Grand Chute—declared states of emergency to speed up recovery and access aid. Curfews are now in place from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. in Menasha and Fox Crossing to keep emergency crews safe and efficient, with exceptions for essential workers. A boil-water order affects parts of Fox Crossing and Menasha due to infrastructure strain. Emergency shelters are open, and transportation is available for those in need. The Winnebago County Emergency Operations Center is fully active, coordinating rescue, debris removal, and power restoration as residents brace for the long road to recovery.
