| Episode Narrative |
The atmosphere became very unstable Saturday afternoon, and along with a strong wind shear, aided in the development of very large hail, isolated tornadoes and straight-line wind damage in Minnesota, which eventually moved into west-central Wisconsin during the evening. Most of the damage in Wisconsin was associated with a bow-echo that moved across the Twin Cities, and into far west-central Wisconsin. These storms moved east and southeast across west-central Wisconsin before weakening toward the late evening. |
