Update: 9:30 pm. Severe storm warnings posted for portions of Stearns, Todd and Morrison counties until 10:15 pm. Reports of quarter-size hail and wind gusts to 60 mph - the storms are moving southeast at 35. Earlier this same storm spawned a tornado in Douglas county - near Alexandria - now the main threat appears to be straight-line winds and hail, although an isolated tornado can't be ruled out.
Meteorologist Paul Douglas writes about Minnesota weather daily, trying to go beyond the "highs" and "lows" of the weather story to discuss current trends and some of the how's and why's of meteorology. Rarely is our weather dull - every day is a new forecast challenge. Why is the weather doing what it's doing? Is climate change a real concern, and if so, how will my family be affected? Climate is flavoring all weather now, and I'll include links to timely stories that resonate with me.
