Our first tornado warning of the day is in southern Minnesota.

hard to tell exactly what it's got going on because it's kind of far from the radar but it's moving directly toward Rochester, which is concerning

 

[TornadoFan]

Oh fun. The Oklahoma City radar is down.

 

[eep]

Those south Iowa cells look like a problem already.

 

[TornadoFan]

Cascade, IA storm.

 

[Ozonelayer]

We have a few semi-discrete supercells near Dubuque, IA. If they maintain structure and dont go upscale, thats a REAL problem.

Cascade, IA storm is now tornado warned.

Cascade, IA storm is now tornado warned.

I mean velocity doesn't look too impressive, but it's been getting stronger every scan. Can't say I disagree.

However, there's no wall cloud according to Copic.

 

[TornadoFan]

Decent wall cloud on that storm in Iowa now.

So they updated the warning and had this?
"SOURCE...Weather spotters reported a tightening wall cloud near
Bernard."

Someone is feeding bad info I feel like, unless it's rain wrapped.
