===2000 weather incident=== Shortly before noon on May 12, 2000, St. Nazianz and surrounding communities were hit by a severe storm that caused major damage. The storm was initially considered a tornado but was later declared a "thunderstorm [[Supercell|super cell]] moist microburst" by meteorologists. It was reported that the storm produced {{convert|120|mi/h|km/h|abbr=on}} straight line winds. The [[National Weather Service]] reported that at least {{convert|75|mi/h|km/h|abbr=on}} wind gusts were achieved.<ref name="National Weather Service">[http://www.crh.noaa.gov/grb/events/051200.php National Weather Service]</ref> Residents who were in St. Nazianz as the storm hit said that it went from noon light to midnight darkness in a matter of seconds. The storm roughly followed [[U.S. Route 151]], with St. Nazianz and [[Chilton, Wisconsin|Chilton]] receiving the worst of the damage, caused largely by wind and hail. The hail ranged from golf ball-size to baseball-size. Many houses were destroyed by the storm, while others sustained major damage. Many cars were totaled or needed hail damage repair. The total damage caused by this storm to St. Nazianz and surrounding areas was estimated at $122 million.<ref name="National Weather Service"/> It was the state's first storm to exceed $100 million in damage.<ref>{{Cite episode |series=Local 5 News at 10:00 |first=Luke |last=Stampe |station=[[WFRV]] |location=[[Green Bay, Wisconsin]] |time=10:15pm }}{{full citation needed|date=August 2019}}</ref> No casualties were caused by the storm. The village has since recovered considerably.
