Monday's severe weather moving through Minnesota is creating dangerous conditions. According to the National Weather Service, a tornado was observed near Fairmont, Minnesota on Monday afternoon. The federal agency says it also received "multiple tornado reports" near Winnebago in Faribault County.

The first severe thunderstorm warning of the day in Minnesota has been issued, with the NWS Sioux Falls saying the warning is in effect in Beaver Creek in southwestern Minnesota, where 2-inch size hail is possible. It has now expanded to three Minnesota counties.

Storms with lightning, hail, and potential tornadoes impacted the upper Midwest, particularly southern Minnesota, northern Iowa, and western Wisconsin.
