Strong storms visit parts of the region

Severe weather passed through portions of the Red River Valley over the weekend.

Tornado Warnings were posted late Saturday afternoon for Polk and Mahnomen counties. A series of Severe Thunderstorm Warnings were issued for other areas – including a Grand Forks County.

A Flash Flood warning was issued for the St. Thomas area in Pembina County Sunday morning after a two day rain total of seven inches. The heavy rain briefly closed a small stretch of I-29 south of Drayton due to flooding.

The National Weather Service in Grand Forks says a storm survey team has been sent to the Becker…Norman…Mahnomen county areas to follow up on tornado and storm damage reports.
