Far northwest Wisconsin was hit with heavy thunderstorms during the night. The National Weather Service says Superior got pea sized hail around 3:30 a-m. But most of the damage was to the west in neighboring Minnesota, where lightning and wind gusts of up to 45 miles-an-hour knocked out power to about seven-thousand electric customers. Forecasters say the region could get more strong thunderstorms tomorrow (Thursday) night and into the weekend. Storms are also forecast in the Madison area, with partly to mostly cloudy skies predicted for the rest of the Badger State with highs in the 70s and 80s.
