Thunderstorms formed along and near a warm front draped through central North Dakota during the afternoon and early evening hours, with many becoming severe. Early in the event, a tornado formed over south central Wells County, north of Chaseley. The tornado impacted no structures and so there was no damage to evaluate, so was rated EF Unknown by NWS policy. Heavy rains over northeast Wells County led to flash flooding, with water flowing over County Highway 5. Elsewhere, large hail was the primary threat, though there were also some occurrences of severe wind gusts. The largest hail reported was the size of a golf ball, which occurred in Stutsman County. The highest wind gust was measured at 70 mph in Kidder County.
