Thunderstorms from a strong low-pressure system in the area have produced a couple of funnel clouds and even one tornado on Saturday in eastern South Dakota.
At 3:55pm, weather spotters 2 miles northeast of Bruce reported a persistent funnel cloud in Brookings County.
Later, a thunderstorm in Deuel County dropped a brief tornado about four miles northeast of the Poinsett Colony, located north of Estelline. The tornado report came in at about 4:20pm CDT.
Earlier in Lake County, a thunderstorm southwest of Ramona produced a funnel cloud at around 2:25pm CDT.
South Dakota was not alone, as thunderstorms in western Minnesota also brought the same threats. Storm chasers northeast of Madison, MN, reported a brief rain-wrapped tornado that only lasted 30 to 45 seconds on the ground in an open field.
