Another round of potential storms will occur from Tuesday evening into Wednesday. A slight risk (level 2 of 5) and marginal risk (level 1 of 5) for severe weather have been issued for portions of North Dakota, Minnesota, and South Dakota. Although storms do not look overly likely through Eastern North Dakota or Minnesota this evening or tonight, it will be possible for a few storms to develop.

Those storms would hold a potential for an isolated tornado, hail, and strong wind gusts.
