Friday afternoon, after two days of extreme high temperatures, southern and west central Minnesota was hit by an extremely severe storm that produced hurricane like winds, hail and heavy rain, and several tornadoes. Several communities including mine lost power and sustained massive damage. Some were lucky to have only tree damage. Others weren't with buildings and homes destroyed.
My town regained power Saturday night after about 26 hours with no power. A neighboring town regained power yesterday. But several communities still remain with no power.
The same storm that hit Minnesota also hit western Wisconsin.
