Approximately 14,000 families lost power, as a result of a severe storm across Minnesota and western Wisconsin. About 5,000 families were out of power after the storm subsided. The storm uprooted trees, snapped them in half, warped trampolines, and left piles of hail.
Ed Ratledge was asleep on the couch in his apartment when, “Both bedrooms, ceiling came down, completely straight down”…“If I would've been sleeping in the bedroom, the whole thing would've came down on me”.
Suzanne, another resident impacted by the storm said that it, “Seemed to come out of nowhere. Suddenly there's wind and hail. I thought our windows were gonna blow in,”…”Things just flying everywhere, so scariest storm I've been in a very long time”.
