Several VERY PRONOUNCED Supercellular thunderstorms within a large scale squall line ... potentials for LARGE HAIL, strong damaging winds, and tornadoes likely with this line ...

Rough hours ahead in S Minnesota and No. Central Iowa. Let's hope and pray that tornadoes do not develop now that the night sky has taken control.
