On this Day in Weather History...
In 1989, severe thunderstorms raked parts of the Northern Plains and Upper Mississippi Valley with golf ball to baseball-sized hail and 60 to 80 mph winds. Baseball-sized hail bombarded counties neighboring the Twin Cities to the southeast while numerous reports of golf ball sized hail struck Western and Central Wisconsin. Total damage estimates are unknown, although around $1 million damage was reported in extreme West-Central Wisconsin about 40 miles northeast of Rochester.
