Little Falls, the town this property stands in, in 46 storm reports between 1995 and 2024: 20 thunderstorm wind, 19 hail, 2 flood, 2 heavy rain.
No death or injury is recorded in these reports. Each account below is quoted exactly as the forecast office
filed it, from the NOAA Storm Events Database, and each date
opens the federal record of that event.
Significant wind damage occurred to city-owned property of the Little Falls Golf Course. There were 53 trees lost to the storm, along with several large branches. There were also several buildings damage to the local Little Falls Community School District. Dozens of trees were also broken or uprooted in the southeast part of town. A damage survey by the NWS was performed and it appeared to have been downburst damage.
Two hangars, a maintenance garage, and the roof of the terminal building were damaged by winds measured at 78 MPH at the airport in the southeast corner of town. A large tree also fell onto a truck at the airport. In town, Oak trees up to 40 feet tall and several branches were blown down.
This was the last severe report from a series of storms that formed in Douglas County near Rose City, produced a tornado 3 E Long Prairie in Todd County, and moved into Morrison County.
