The National Weather Service has now confirmed a EF1 tornado touched down in Walworth County Tuesday night. The storm left significant damage in parts of the county.

Ron Amann, who owns for R.J Amann Builders in Lake Geneva, said Wednesday morning the storm left a work site in tatters.

\"There's two by fours thrown around like toothpicks,\" Amann described, \"The only good thing I can say is nobody was here. We had some guys [who] were working in the building lake and they, thank God, went home. We have no injuries and we talked to police last night and everybody was safe.\"

Many people looked at the damage and were relived no one was hurt. 

\"Besides wow,\" Deanna Busch- who works for one of the businesses hit - said. \"A lot of friends in all of these buildings. We'll all pick up, we'll all help each other out and we'll all get going.\"
