| Episode Narrative | Isolated severe thunderstorms that developed during the afternoon of Sunday, August 24th, produced a tornado near Morrill, along with large hail south of Hiilman. |
| Event Narrative | A supercell thunderstorm developed west of St. Cloud in eastern Stearns County around 3:45 PM CST. The storm gradually became better organized as it entered Benton County. A classic hook echo formed as it crossed U.S. Highway 10 around 4:25 PM CST and began to produce a tornado at 4:47 PM CST 3 miles south southwest of Morrill. The tornado produced a narrow swath of mainly tree damage along its path east northeast, but some minor structural damage was also noted - such as a roof being torn off from a farm outbuilding. The tornado moved into Morrison County at 4:56 PM CST. The tornado was photographed and caught on video by numerous storm chasers, spotters and others. |
