June 2005Thunderstorm WindHayward1 killedA 55 year-old man was killed after a thunderstorm toppled a tree onto the tent where he and his 7 year-old grandson were sleeping on Loon Point Island in the Chippewa Flowage. Rescuers found the man alive the following morning, but he died before he reached the hospital.
August 2021LightningHayward Arpt4 hurtFour family members visiting the Hayward area from southern Wisconsin were golfing at the Big Fish Golf Club the morning of the tenth. Storms were developing in the area at that time and one of these storms produced a lightning bolt that hit near the 5th hole's tee box where the four were standing. All four were taken to an area hospital for treatment and were alert when first responders arrived. Two were released that day while the other two remained in the hospital for an unknown length of time. All four of the victims were male and their ages were 14, 19, 38, and 72.
April 2023FloodMoose Lake$300,000Warm temperatures early in April led to rapid snowmelt of a well above normal snowpack across the region. Additionally, heavy rainfall on top of the snowpack led to additional high runoff across the county as well. Roads began to be impacted on the 12th with water overtopping low spots leading to washouts and failed culverts. Temperatures cooled during the middle of the month along with a heavy snow event the 16th into the 17th. This allowed the runoff to slow and water levels to drop. However, water levels rose again later in the month as this new snow melted as well. Numerous road closures were reported across the entire county due to failed culverts, washouts and gravel roads being washed away. Multiple communities issued disaster declarations due to the extent of washed out roads. High water continued to impact homes, driveways and farm fields through the end of the month.

Culverts at both Mosquito Brook Road and Porky's Road were overwhelmed with two feet of water about 100 yards wide at both locations. This flooding cut off access to multiple homes and caused damage to roadways.
