On the technical side, this was my first time using the new major version of the #tmap #Rstats package. Takes some getting used to, but a lot of it makes much more sense than in the previous version. https://r-tmap.github.io/tmap/

In #Wisconsin, a visibly striking #tornado spun through fields in New Richmond, while another caused significant damage in Hammond. In the capital of Madison, a hailstorm dropped #hail up to 2” in diameter.
The #NWS has issued #tornado & severe #storm warnings throughout the region, & cautioned that much of #Kentucky & parts of #Tennessee are also under a moderate risk for #flooding.
