...STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO
NORTHWEST NORTH DAKOTA LATE THIS EVENING...

Thunderstorms have rapidly developed in northeast Montana, and
are moving northeast at 50 mph. They are expected to cross the
North Dakota and Montana state line around 1030 PM CDT. The storms
are expected to then continue across northwest North Dakota, and
some of them will be severe. The main threat will be damaging
winds up to around 70 mph, but large hail up to ping pong ball
size is also possible. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch is in effect
for the area until 3 AM CDT.

Prepare now for the possibility of severe thunderstorms in the
next few hours if you are in northwest North Dakota.
