Severe storms approaching the Twin Cities

A severe thunderstorm is rolling through western Minnesota, nearly parallel with Interstate 94, with large hail and strong winds associated with it.  This is a thunderstorm complex that moved from North Dakota earlier and the day.

The storm should be into the heart of the metro around 1 AM or soon after. Expect rumbles of thunder, gusty winds, and hail as it moves through. The atmosphere is still very unstable, so I don’t see the intensity letting up any time soon. It appears the southwest Twin Cities metro will get the brunt of it.

Stay alert for possible warnings shortly!
