While the weather that swept through the area over the weekend resulted in the cancelation or postponement of many events, such as Snowfest, it did much worse in Oshkosh.
EAA AirVenture took place this weekend, and the storms caused some significant damage at the airfield.
Trees were knocked over, and tents were pulled from the ground.
No injuries were reported, but there were reports of power poles being damaged, and some planes being damaged.
Despite the damage, the festivities continued on Sunday with no delay.
Meanwhile, in Manitowoc, local airport officials scrambled to secure 18 T-34 Warbirds that were in town for their annual formation flight training prior to appearing at the huge airshow.
Curt Drumm reported that the local officials were able to get them into over 16,000 square feet of hangar space in just under two hours ahead of the storm.
Nearly 10,000 planes will fly into Oshkosh for EAA, making it the busiest airport in the world for the week-long show.
3,000 of those are considered show planes.
The attendance figures are estimated to reach over 600,000 people from nearly 100 countries.
