SUMMARY...Thunderstorm initiation is expected soon across eastern North Dakota and into northwest Minnesota. The storm environment will initially favor supercells capable of producing very large hail. The tornado threat will be greater where storms interact with the surface warm front near and east of the Minnesota border. Otherwise, storms are expected to grow upscale into multiple clusters capable of producing significant damaging winds and large hail into early tonight.
