Последствия
После вспышки торнадо губернатор Висконсина Томми Томпсон объявил чрезвычайное положение в округе Фон-дю-Лак, что привело к развертыванию Национальной гвардии для оказания помощи пострадавшим и расчистки завалов. Всего было разрушено 47 из 320 домов, а 56 получили серьезные повреждения, наряду с многочисленными предприятиями и церквями. Оценки ущерба превысили 40,4 миллиона долларов США, что сделало эту вспышку самой дорогостоящей в истории штата. Несмотря на силу торнадо F5 и масштабные разрушения, оно повлекло за собой, смертельных случаев не было зарегистрировано, а в общей сложности 17 человек получили ранения. Впоследствии сообщество Оукфилда получило значительную финансовую поддержку от частных лиц и предприятий в виде пожертвований и займов для помощи в восстановлении. Значительная часть лесного покрова и экологического ландшафта района была опустошена торнадо, но благодаря согласованным усилиям местных жителей и проведению благотворительных акций было собрано более 102 000 долларов США, и было посажено более 1400 деревьев. 25-я годовщина торнадо была отмечена 18 июля 2021 года серией памятных мероприятий, включая парад, богослужение на открытом воздухе, день открытых дверей по всей деревне и выставку фотографий и свидетельств очевидцев торнадо в библиотеке Oakfield Public Library в парке Acorn Park.
