The severe weather led to widespread disruptions including water rescues in Milwaukee, power outages affecting thousands of households, and road closures. Motorists were forced to abandon their vehicles amid the hazardous conditions. The flooding and storms prompted authorities to take precautionary measures, resulting in the cancellation of the 11-day event's concluding day.
