A line of storms quickly moved across southeast South Dakota, southwest Minnesota and northwest Iowa in the early morning hours of August 5, 2018. These storms produced a weak tornado, large hail, and tree damage along the path.
Flooding caused by weeks of above average rainfall is continuing across parts of the region, in particular in southwest Minnesota and northwest Iowa. Here is the latest information on the ongoing flooding.
A slow-moving cold front & weak surface low associated with the remnants of Tropical Depression Bud, brought areas of heavy rain across the region during the night of June 17-18. A swath of 1 to 4 inches of rain fell from NE Nebraska to SW Minnesota.
Localized areas of damaging winds were reported with a line of thunderstorms Friday evening, along with reduced visibility from blowing dust. Strong winds were also observed behind the line of storms as a wake low developed.
A wake low moved along the Nebraska and South Dakota border into west central Iowa. As the wake low approached wind gusts increased to 35 to 55 mph.
This is a summary of the storms that impacted the region on May 8 including the EF-0 tornado that touched down northwest of Vilas, South Dakota.
Wednesday is Winter Weather Awareness Day in South Dakota. Are you prepared?
