| Episode Narrative |
The evening of August 8th, a very unstable air mass was in place across the upper Midwest with a warm front draped across the Twin Cities area, then eastward across west central Wisconsin. Initially, a strong cap suppressed thunderstorm development until around sunset as a cool front moved across east central Minnesota, and developed a supercell west of Minneapolis, Minnesota. The storm complex then moved into west central Wisconsin. |
