Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn extended period consisting of two days of continuous severe weather occurred from June 7 through June 8. Thunderstorms initially developed along a warm front over the James River Valley into parts of south central North Dakota where strong instability and deep layer shear were noted. During the evening, a mix of wind and hail damage occurred. The largest hail reported during this period was 2.25 inches in diameter which occurred in Logan County, while the strongest reported wind gust occurred in LaMoure County, which was estimated at 80 mph. In addition a tornado occurred in Stutsman County. The tornado caused no damage and was rated EF-U, EF Unknown. As the night went on, a strong low level jet sustained severe thunderstorms. These continued into the morning, before storms started gradually spreading to the west along the slow moving, if not stationary, warm front that initiated the storms the previous evening. From early morning into the afternoon, large hail and damaging wind gusts remained a concern, but the primary threat became flooding due to the slow moving storms gradually back-building towards the west. The initial flooding occurred over the southern James River Valley, particularly near the city of Marion in LaMoure County. The flooding concerns then gradually spread west into Kidder, Emmons, Burleigh, and Grant counties. Later in the afternoon into the evening and nighttime hours as the storms developed over far western North Dakota, the main threats changed back to large hail and damaging wind gusts. During this time period, the largest reported hail was the size of a baseball, which fell in Golden Valley County. The strongest reported wind gust was estimated to be at 80 mph, in Billings County.
