There have been several reports of funnel clouds from storm spotters this afternoon. The environment across central into north-central WI will remain favorable for funnel clouds to develop through sunset. If a funnel cloud is spotted, report it to the National Weather Service. If a tornado warning becomes necessary, take appropriate action.

FYI - if you're in the area of the Airport tomorrow ⬇ ✈

🚨ATW Full-Scale Emergency Exercise TOMORROW🚨

We’ll be conducting a full-scale emergency training exercise tomorrow night, August 19, at ATW. You may see emergency personnel, actors, fire trucks, sirens, and smoke around the airport campus.

THIS IS ONLY A DRILL! There is no real emergency.

Flights will not be affected, and the airport will operate as normal. These exercises are an important part of our ongoing safety training and help our team and emergency responders stay prepared.

Thanks for your understanding!
