Severe storms are expected across the region Wednesday afternoon and evening. While storms are most likely to form along and slightly ahead of an advancing cold front marching out of central MN in the afternoon, there is a low chance (20-30%) for storms to form further ahead of this front early in the afternoon. Regardless of where they form, storms will quickly become severe with large hail (2+") likely with more isolated storms. As the storms merge into a line later in the afternoon, the threat shifts to damaging winds (75+ mph). Tornadoes are possible throughout the afternoon and evening, a few of which could become strong (EF2+). The line of storms moves east of the region by late in the evening. Now is the time to ensure your severe weather shelter is accessible, that you can receive weather warnings, and possibly adjust any plans, especially if they are outdoors.
