Foggy Sunday

This was definitely a common scene especially across the SD-MN border. Here's a plot of surface weather surface stations around our region.

You can see a lot of pink "=" signs going into Minnesota. That symbol means fog across the region. Up in Mobridge, you can see a "<-->" sign, that's an ice crystal sign, because the temp in Mobridge is just a bit above the freezing mark. The "." and ".." are rain and moderate rain, you can see an "R" shape down in Nebraska - that's the weather symbol for a thunderstorm with lightning. Here's a good site to figure out what some other symbols are on these observation stations. The farther south and east you get from us, the messier the weather gets. This is a composite of the Storm Prediction Center's radar and current "risk outlooks".
And you can definitely tell that's where all the action has happened so far. 11 tornadoes reported (the dots in red), 39 wind reports (the dots in blue) and 118 hail reports (the dots in green). You can definitely tell where the storms are.
We won't be seeing any of this kind of weather for awhile... enjoy the calm but cool next two days before storms fire up on Wednesday.
