| Description: |
A funnel cloud has been reported near Sargeant, MN. These funnel clouds normally do not touch the ground. As a result, they rarely do any damage and last only a few minutes. However, if you live along and south of Interstate 90 ...remain on the alert and be prepared to move to a place of safety if a funnel should approach the ground. Atmospheric conditions for those along and south of Interstate 90 will continue to be favorable for the formation of short lived funnels through the afternoon. |
