Where is FEMA now?> One Dead As Storms Blast Parts of Wis. By The Associated Press Published September 13, 2005, 11:03 PM CDT Thunderstorms packing powerful winds swept through parts of Wisconsin Tuesday, knocking out power to tens of thousands of homes, damaging buildings, and downing trees and power lines. A downed wire killed a 57-year-old man in the Milwaukee suburb of Wauwatosa, police Lt. Gerald Witkowski said. "He was walking in his back yard and he either touched or stepped on a wire or it arced up from the ground," Witkowski said. In Outagamie County, barns, silos, sheds and garages were reported toppled by gale-force winds, said Sgt. Cayelynn Christensen of the Outagamie County 911 Center in Appleton. "It's bad. It hit all over," she said. Winds gusted to 75 mph in Pewaukee, the weather service said. In Sheboygan, police Lt. Jim Veeser said about 40 large trees were blocking roadways and some roads were flooded. We Energies spokeswoman Wendy Parks said tens of thousands lost power in southeastern Wisconsin, the Fox Valley area and the Upper Peninsula. "Depending on the amount of damage the outage could go on for several days," he said.
