Several waves of thunderstorms developed across southern and central Minnesota, as well as west central Wisconsin during the morning and early afternoon hours of Monday, May 30th. Most of the hail was small, but a few large hail stones were reported. Due to high freezing levels and a very moist atmosphere, most of the hail size was non-severe.
