    Host Rob Haswell (Fox 6 Milwaukee) reunites with Chief Meteorologists Emily Wahls (Fox 32 Chicago) and Rich Luterman (Fox 2 Detroit) for another eye-opening episode of The Isobar. The team dives deep into the unprecedented 2026 severe weather season that has shattered all-time tornado records across Illinois and brought historic numbers to Wisconsin. Emily breaks down the catastrophic August 11th derecho, detailing the 100 mph straight-line winds, weeks-long power outages, and lasting impacts on communities in Illinois and Indiana. Then the team ponders the degrading effects all the severe weather is having on our power grid. Meanwhile, Rich provides a surprisingly calm update from Detroit, sharing fascinating video of a rare Great Lakes waterspout off Harsens Island. The trio then shifts focus to the bigger picture: analyzing the Pacific's sudden outbreak of tropical activity near Hawaii, examining the National Hurricane Center's newly updated storm surge and hazard communication maps, and discussing how severe weather is expanding beyond traditional boundaries. Finally, they address the mounting infrastructure challenges, regional droughts, and whether a calm autumn is finally on the horizon for the Midwest. Learn more about your ad choices.
