Episode Narrative Thunderstorms initially formed on the afternoon of May 30th in central South Dakota and north central Nebraska, before expanding into a large squall line that raced into Minnesota mainly after dark. The thunderstorms formed along and just behind a strong cold front, before they accelerated to the northeast. A segment of the squall line eventually affected the Brainerd Lakes area, producing damaging winds. The squall line quickly diminished in intensity as it moved east and northeast as it outran the axis of best atmospheric instability.
Event Narrative Power lines were blown down.
