Tuesday afternoon's storms resulted in more damage in some areas still cleaning up from storms over the past week. The National Weather Service will be sending survey teams to assess the damages to confirm multiple sightings of tornadoes. Fond du Lac County Executive Allen Buechel declared a state of emergency, the county announced Tuesday night. At least three tornadoes are believed to have touched down there, resulting in damage and power outages but no injuries. Fond du Lac County Sheriff Mick Fink says a tornado touched down and damaged the Pebble Knolls Dairy Farm located in the Township of Waupun. "I heard the roar," farm owner Dick Wetzel told Action 2 News. He believes that roar was a tornado, and as evidence he shows us the leveled barn that held more than 600 cows.
