Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeStrong low pressure developed across central South Dakota on Saturday, which moved slowly toward northern Minnesota by Sunday morning. Southerly winds gusted as high as 50 to 70 mph at times in the late morning and afternoon, which caused sporadic tree and building damage across the area. A considerable amount of blowing dust also occurred with the strongest winds, with visibility briefly a mile or less. The strong winds combined with very low humidity and dormant vegetation resulted in numerous wildfires.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeThree area fire departments responded to a fire around 3 miles north-northwest of Lesterville, sparked by an electrical cord hanging from a silage unloader. A 30 by 30 foot shed and a large grove of trees were burned.
