Wausau, WI - The threat for "Severe Storms" lasted throughout most of the night, leaving homeowners in the Wausau area with quite the mess to clean-up.  Gusty winds knocked down trees and power lines.  More than 1000 customers were left without electricity.  The storms also ripped off an awning at a gas station and pulled a traffic light out of the ground.  A tornado touched down near Marathon City, which is just a few miles west of Wausau.  Luckily there were no reports of any injuries.
