After talking with Derek last night..I have decide to make up a map of the Barron County tornado and severe thunderstorms allies...I used the GRlevel2 radar amp so I could zoom into Barron County....
As you will see I have two areas that seem to get hit more often than the rest of County...Area one covers the Northern section of Barron County..This is the main area that sees more severe thunderstorms than the rest of the area....Seems like storms move in from Polk County and strengthen as they move into this area..This area also has the highest numbers of tornadoes as a rule.....Area number two Covers the most of the Southern areas of the Barron County,although not the greatest area,this area gets hit hard with it's share of severe thunderstorms...The tornado count here is some what lower than is counterparts....Still not sure why the central part of the County is low it appears like the storms go around the Central areas...Here is another map from the NWS it shows the tornado events from 1982 through 2004...Shows Barron County with the highest amount of tornadoes in Northwestern WI....Also what is interesting we go back in time from 1950 through 1982 Barron County still comes out on top in Northwestern WI for tornadoes...
I have been studying this since I was 10 years old trying to figure out why the Northern parts of Barron County get more severe thunderstorms than the Central,and why the Southern areas get more, although less than the Northern areas,get more than the Central areas...Also this is on the ave!
