| Episode Narrative |
An area of surface low pressure tracked from near Cooperstown (ND) in the early afternoon to near Detroit Lakes (MN) by early evening. Abundant sunshine along and south of this line contributed to a healthy amount of instability through the afternoon into the evening. Thunderstorms flared up by mid afternoon in the New Rockford (ND) area and tracked southeast to near Fergus Falls (MN) by early evening, producing some large hail, damaging winds, and heavy amounts of rain. |

The thunderstorms dropped 4.70 inches of rain in about two hours. |
