Weather forecast office sourcewfo_sourceTrained Spotter
Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeMorning sunshine and moisture from recent rainfall combined to produce afternoon instability along the Red River Valley. In addition, a frontal boundary set up from the Lake of the Woods down into the southern Red River Valley. A few weak thunderstorm cells formed along the boundary by mid afternoon. One of the cells formed just southeast of the Fargo Moorhead area, and it quickly produced a funnel cloud. Many people from the city looking to the southeast saw this funnel and also the resulting tornado. There were also other reports of funnel clouds and tornadoes.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeMultiple persistent funnels were reported by spotters and the broadcast media shortly before 2 PM CST. Eventually at least two of these funnels produced brief non-damaging touchdowns in rural areas between Moorhead and Glyndon.
