| Episode Narrative |
Severe Thunderstorm Watch 766 was issued for much of western and central North Dakota around daybreak Monday morning, July 28th, in anticipation of an evolving Mesoscale Convective System (MCS) approaching western North Dakota. This complex of severe thunderstorms eventually moved into and across northwest and west central North Dakota, prompting several severe thunderstorm warnings and one tornado warning. Several reports of large hail and severe thunderstorm wind gusts were received during the mid to late morning hours. |
| Event Narrative |
A large hail swath (up to golf ball sized) was about four miles long and a mile wide, and moved through the city of Halliday. No damage reports were received from the hail however. The storm hailed itself out about 4 miles southeast of town. |
