Nerstrand, the town this property stands in, in 16 storm reports between 1998 and 2024: 6 hail, 5 thunderstorm wind, 2 tornado, 1 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.
A storm survey noted tin blown off part of a large machine shed. About a dozen trees were broken. All damage was blown to the east-northeast. It is possible the tornado east of Nerstrand started in this area, but that was impossible to determine.
A storm survey determined that a tornado hit a farm east of Nerstrand. Several trees were downed, and a shed was destroyed. The wind also blew down a power pole, landing on a barn which then caught on fire. The tornado may have started southwest of Nerstrand, but it was impossible to determine from the damage pattern. Maximum winds were estimated at around 70 mph.
