Thursday storm forces postponement of Lowertown Sounds' first night originally appeared on Bring Me The News.
The Thursday evening storm that swept through the Twin Cities forced the postponement of the first concert of St. Paul's Lowertown Sounds series.
Ahead of its scheduled Thursday concert featuring the Flamin' Oh's, Lowertown Sounds announced that the threat of thunderstorms had resulted in the cancellation.
The show, which would have marked the kickoff of the series at Mears Park, is rescheduled for Sep. 11.
'We are as excited as you about kicking off the series but also don't want our first night out to be a wet and sloppy mess, especially for one of our summer highlight bands, the Flamin Oh's,' Lowertown Sounds wrote on Facebook.
The series is scheduled to resume on Thursday, June 19 with a performance by The New Standards.
Aside from the rescheduled show, Lowertown Sounds will run on Thursdays through Aug. 14.

Supercells again threaten severe weather in Minnesota on Sunday
Supercells again threaten severe weather in Minnesota on Sunday originally appeared on Bring Me The News. Sunday could turn in another round of severe weather in Minnesota, with areas that were hit hard early Saturday once again at risk for large hail, damaging winds and tornadoes. The National Weather Service issued a severe thunderstorm watch for eastern North Dakota and northwest Minnesota at 9:05 a.m., and the watch is in effect until 2 p.m. Tornadoes, hail up to two inches in diameter, and winds up to 70 mph are possible. The morning storms are expected to be the first of two rounds of potentially severe weather in Minnesota today, with more explosive storm development in northwest Minnesota is expected once the cap breaks after 4 p.m. According to the Storm Prediction Center, the second round of storms could feature supercells capable of producing tornadoes, very large hail and winds up to 75 mph. Sign up for our MINNESOTA WEATHER newsletters More storms could develop along a cold front to the southwest — in the Dakotas — and move to the east-northeast late Sunday night into Monday morning. Large hail and damaging winds will be the main threat with those, but a strong cap over central and southern Minnesota could limit how far east the storms remain strong. Here's how the HRRR model simulates the radar from 10 a.m. Sunday to 8 a.m. Monday. The NAM model shows a similar evolution, and notice how the storms in southern Minnesota struggle to maintain as they approach the Twin Cities. That's a factor of the models picking up on the strong cap that will be in place. More storms are possible in southeastern Minnesota in Monday, followed by potential for heavy rain in southern Minnesota Tuesday and Wednesday as the frontal boundary stalls near the Minnesota-Iowa story was originally reported by Bring Me The News on Jun 22, 2025, where it first appeared.

How much rain has fallen so far in Minnesota this week?
How much rain has fallen so far in Minnesota this week? originally appeared on Bring Me The News. Friday brought more rain to Minnesota, with totals in excess of six inches being documented in parts of the state. A system bringing tracks of consistent moderate-to-heavy rain has been making its way across the state during the course of Thursday and Friday, with central Minnesota seeing the heaviest amounts. Rain is expected to continue for the next several days, with the National Weather Service noting that flooding, perhaps even flash flooding, is a risk through midweek. Sign up for our BREAKING WEATHER newsletters Here's a look at the latest totals, based on readings provided to the Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network. Numbers show rain totals between Tuesday and 4 p.m. Friday 4.52 inches – Willmar 4.07 inches – Annandale 3.76 inches – Appleton 3.53 inches – Glencoe 3.47 inches – Montevideo 3.29 inches – Spicer 3.09 inches – Frontenac 3.08 inches – Lester Prairie 2.94 inches – Hutchinson, Dassel 2.88 inches – Fairmont 2.87 inches – Kandiyohi 2.86 inches – Welch 2.84 inches – Watertown 2.83 inches – Darwin 2.77 inches – Benson 2.72 inches – Atwater, Silver Lake, Chokio 2.64 inches – Litchfield, Cannon Falls 2.63 inches – Avon 2.62 inches – Morris 2.57 inches – Minneapolis 2.56 inches – Delano 2.55 inches – Eden Valley, New London 2.54 inches – Hancock 2.49 inches – Pennock, Howard Lake 2.42 inches – Red Wing 2.41 inches – Paynesville, 2.40 inches – Renville 2.38 inches – Northfield 2.36 inches – Ortonville 2.35 inches – Randolph, Dawson, Bird Island You can find more totals by clicking here. However, locations just south of Willmar, in southern Kandiyohi County, have received nearly double than what has been recorded in Willmar. If you're weather savvy and check radar apps for estimated rainfall totals, you'll see astonishing totals between 15-20 inches of rain in those areas. But rest assured, the numbers are significantly inflated because the technology can't give a true measurement. For example, the WeatherWise app, as seen below, suggests a radar estimate of nearly 19 inches of rain in rural Kandiyohi County. It's wrong. The real totals in that area, according to the National Weather Service, is more likely to 7-8 inches with some localized 9-inch amounts (which is still a lot!). The RadarScope app, which is popular among storm chasers, is showing similarly insane rain totals. "Our line of thinking is that the dual-pol estimated precipitation from the radar is vastly overdone by almost double what is actually on the ground," the National Weather Service in the Twin Cities told Bring Me The News. There are no flood warnings in the area despite the significant rain, and as of noon Friday the weather service had only been informed of "nuisance street ponding" in Willmar," with "little to speak of in the hard hit rural areas."
