Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeThis event set up as another nice case of elevated convection. On the morning of the 20th, an area of surface low pressure was located near Mobridge, South Dakota, with a warm front arching to the southeast (down into eastern Nebraska). A 35 to 45 knot low level jet set up from central Nebraska into northeast South Dakota, where there was also a tight moisture gradient at 850 mb. Thunderstorms initially flared up near Crookston, MN, and moved northeast at 40 to 50 mph.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeLightning struck an evergreen tree in Barrett, scattering pieces of the tree across several neighboring yards. As the tree fell, it broke multiple windows and damaged the concrete steps to a house. The strike also damaged the electrical systems in three nearby homes. One home lost a microwave, two televisions, and several other smaller appliances.
