Listeners across America, weather experts are sounding the alarm for a potentially dangerous outbreak of windstorms spanning the Plains and Midwest as of Friday, August 29, 2025. Fox Weather is reporting a “potential derecho spawning tornadoes, hurricane-force winds threatens several states across Plains, Midwest,” with these storms set to organize late Friday into the early morning hours of Saturday.

As the weather pattern unfolds, forecasters say conditions are primed for a large, fast-moving cluster of thunderstorms to develop, fueled by oppressive late-summer heat lingering across the region. According to the Texas Storm Chasers’ latest update on August 29, severe storms began moving in from New Mexico into the Texas Panhandle Friday evening, with confirmed gusts in Oklahoma and Kansas already reaching 70 miles per hour and hail the size of tennis balls. The storms are forecast to merge overnight, pushing southeast through the Panhandle, Big Country, and Concho Valley with winds predicted to exceed 70 mph in the most intense cells, frequent lightning, and rainfall totals up to four inches in isolated spots.

Fox Weather notes that this volatile setup could generate a derecho—a violent, sprawling windstorm associated with a line of rapidly moving thunderstorms. Derechos are notorious for their long-lived, destructive straight-line winds that can sweep across multiple states, toppling trees, tearing down power lines, and smashing windows over hundreds of miles. When trained meteorologists refer to a derecho, they’re talking about a windstorm that leaves a swath of damage at least 250 miles long with several gusts exceeding 74 mph. In rare cases, tornadoes can also spin up along the leading edge, further complicating the threat according to Fox Weather’s ongoing coverage.

Communities from the Texas Panhandle northward into the Midwest are urged to prepare for overnight severe weather and be alert for rapidly evolving warnings. Sudden, destructive gusts and localized flash flooding could make travel dangerous or life-threatening, especially after dark. Texas Storm Chasers urges drivers to exercise extreme caution—flooding is often invisible on the road at night and can quickly strand vehicles.

Meteorologists highlight that a derecho can shift from localized thunderstorms to a full-blown regional disaster in a matter of hours. In past events, derechos have caused millions in damage, widespread power outages, and weeks of recovery work for affected towns. The pattern unfolding now is being called “dangerously similar” by multiple outlets, and residents from Amarillo to Omaha and eastward should remain vigilant into early Saturday morning.

A major derecho event swept across the Northern Plains earlier this week, rapidly developing on Monday as intense summer heat fueled volatile atmospheric conditions. According to AOL News, this fierce and long-lasting line of severe thunderstorms was associated with an expansive heat dome dominating the central U.S., which not only drove temperatures into dangerous territory but supplied the energy needed for widespread destructive windstorms. The storms rapidly organized into a bow-shaped cluster during the afternoon and evening, spreading across parts of South Dakota, southwest Minnesota, and northwest Iowa.

Areas from Aberdeen and Watertown to Sioux Falls in South Dakota bore the brunt of the event, where meteorologists expected concentrated wind gusts topping 75 miles per hour. These winds were powerful enough to topple trees, damage buildings, and knock out power to thousands of homes and businesses. There were also reports of large hail and isolated tornadoes embedded along the storm line, and by nightfall, severe weather and damaging winds had reached into the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area.

This most recent outbreak marks the second derecho to impact the Northern Plains region this summer. Listeners may recall that in late June, another intense derecho struck North Dakota and northern Minnesota with winds recorded up to 106 mph, but Monday's event reinforced just how susceptible this area is to rapidly moving, destructive thunderstorm complexes during late summer.

Derechos are distinctive for their scope and severity—while a normal severe thunderstorm might leave a swath of damage a few miles wide, derechos can cause damaging winds over areas that are tens of miles wide and hundreds of miles long. The technical definition requires a track of at least 400 miles with wind damage over a swath at least 60 miles wide. This episode fit that bill as it left behind a broad, continuous trail of wind damage and countless power outages, with local emergency managers stressing the importance of preparedness and access to multiple severe weather alert systems, including NOAA weather radios and smartphone apps.

This event serves as a reminder that, while most common in late spring and summer, derechos can occur any time strong, organized storm systems form in the right atmospheric setup. Monday’s event was further intensified by the position of the jet stream and the northern edge of the heat dome, creating ideal conditions for the rapid formation of a high-impact windstorm.

Impacts are still being assessed, but initial reports from local media indicate infrastructure damage, widespread tree loss, and disruptions to utility services. Listeners are urged to stay informed, review emergency shelter plans, and keep multiple channels of weather alerts active, especially when living in mobile homes or vulnerable structures.

Listeners, in the past week, a powerful cluster of severe thunderstorms tore through portions of the northern Plains, leaving behind evidence of what many meteorologists warned could develop into a derecho—one of the most feared and destructive windstorms linked to fast-moving lines of thunderstorms. This system rampaged through the Dakotas and Minnesota beginning on August 20, with particularly intense impacts occurring into the early hours of August 21.

According to reporting from AOL and the National Weather Service in Bismarck, wind gusts reached a staggering 101 miles per hour near Linton, North Dakota. These winds, powerful enough to mimic hurricane force, helped knock out power to more than 75,000 residents across the region. In addition to the high wind gusts, the area was pelted by hail as large as 3.5 inches in diameter, and at least three people lost their lives as tornadoes, embedded within the larger thunderstorm complex, devastated rural Enderlin in North Dakota. Deputies and storm chasers discovered multiple fatalities as homes were completely torn apart overnight, according to the Cass County Sheriff’s Office.

This sprawling system comprised several rounds of intense storms, and as meteorologists at AccuWeather reported, the potential for this event to transform into a derecho was continually monitored due to the pattern’s ability to sustain damaging, straight-line winds over hundreds of miles. A derecho is often described as an “inland hurricane” not just because of the wind speeds involved, but also due to its ability to topple trees, snap power lines, and flatten crops over vast swaths of land. The Storm Prediction Center’s preliminary data showed both tornado and widespread wind reports across the Dakotas and Minnesota, with further damaging impacts expected eastward.

The severe weather did not stop there. As the storm complex pressed toward the Midwest and Great Lakes by August 21, authorities warned residents in the path, including those in Wisconsin and into the Northeast, that additional destructive wind gusts and localized flash flooding were possible. AccuWeather and the National Weather Service highlighted the “ring of fire” effect, where intense thunderstorms tend to erupt along the periphery of dominant heat domes. In this case, a record-breaking heat wave—impacting over 150 million Americans—helped fuel the explosive storm environment by providing ample energy and instability for prolonged thunderstorm complexes.

Meanwhile, impacts from the destructive weather pattern extended into agriculture, with Watchers News confirming a large tornado near Hankinson, North Dakota that caused significant crop and tree damage along the North Dakota–South Dakota border on August 21. As of today, restoration efforts are ongoing, and utility crews continue their work to bring power back to affected communities.

Listeners, this past week’s destructive storms are a stark reminder that the derecho, while less familiar than tornadoes or hurricanes, remains one of nature’s most unpredictable and dangerous threats during the U.S. summer severe weather season. As always, stay tuned to weather alerts, have a safety plan in place, and never underestimate the power of rapidly moving thunderstorms.

A destructive derecho tore through the northern Plains and Upper Midwest earlier this week, unleashing hurricane-force winds and widespread damage as it raced eastward. FOX Weather details that late Monday night into Tuesday morning, the storm snapped power poles and uprooted hundreds of trees, with Sioux Center, Iowa, recording the highest gust at a staggering 99 mph. Spencer, Iowa, clocked 92 mph, while towns like Irene and Parker in South Dakota experienced wind gusts over 85 mph. As the storm barreled through, more than 100,000 homes and businesses lost power in Minnesota alone, and almost 30,000 were left in the dark across Iowa. The threat was so intense that the National Weather Service issued a Level 4 out of 5 risk, urging people to brace for the worst.

The derecho’s destructive power is uncommon, but this event highlights how intense such systems can get. Russ Schumacher, professor of atmospheric science at Colorado State University, explained to AOL that derechos stand apart from typical storms because of their sustained, widespread winds. Instead of isolated tornado paths, these windstorms leave a long trail of destruction and match tornado-like damage over hundreds of miles. The defining characteristic is not just the speed, but the extent—often blasting an uninterrupted corridor for more than 240 miles with wind gusts well above 58 mph.

This latest outbreak was powered by a classic summer weather set-up: a dome of heat parked over the central and southern U.S., with cooler air just to the north. That clash along the northern edge creates what meteorologists call a “ring of fire”—an area ripe for severe, fast-moving thunderstorms that can evolve into derechos. As FOX Weather explains, in addition to the fierce winds, hail and flash flooding were major concerns, with the added complication of a simultaneous heat wave causing soaring temperatures from the Plains to the East Coast.

Damage assessment teams are just beginning to evaluate the full extent in the aftermath of this week’s disaster. Early video shared by residents shows barns flattened, vehicles tossed across roads, and power lines tangled on city streets. Emergency crews continue working nonstop to restore electricity and clear debris, while meteorologists urge vigilance. As Professor Schumacher highlighted for AOL, severe thunderstorm warnings in these situations need to be taken as seriously as tornado alerts because of the life-threatening winds. People are encouraged to keep multiple ways of receiving weather warnings, including radios, since cell networks can fail during powerful events.

The recent derecho joins a list of historic windstorms, with past events sometimes causing billions in damage and outages that last for over a week. This time, meteorologists and emergency workers credit advanced warnings and public awareness for preventing greater tragedy, but caution that as long as extreme summer heat persists across the region, the risk for another damaging storm remains.

A significant focus this week has been on Houston’s ongoing recovery efforts following last year’s destructive derecho that struck alongside Hurricane Beryl. According to Click2Houston, the Houston City Council has just approved an expanded disaster recovery plan on August 13, allocating $100 million for housing repairs, a notable increase from the original $50 million designated earlier in the summer. Councilmember Tiffany D. Thomas led the push for more resources after widespread community concern that the original funding wouldn’t be close to enough to address the scale of damage that Houstonians, especially those in vulnerable neighborhoods, experienced.

The council’s debate highlighted just how profound the destruction from the 2024 derecho was, compounding with hurricane impacts to leave thousands of single- and multi-family homes heavily damaged, entire neighborhoods flooded, and massive tree and power line damage across the city. The newly amended plan now splits the $100 million evenly, sending half to repair single-family homes and half to multifamily complexes aimed at helping the most affected residents stabilize their lives and keep communities intact.

In addition to housing, Houston’s council is channeling part of its nearly $315 million in federal aid toward emergency generators and public safety improvements in preparation for future severe weather. The derecho left many areas without power for days, highlighting vulnerabilities that city officials say they’re determined not to repeat. Mayor Whitmire and city leaders have emphasized that these investments are vital not just for rebuilding, but for boosting the city’s resiliency before the next big storm strikes.

While there haven’t been reports of a brand new derecho impacting the United States in just the past few days, farmers across the Midwest continue to keep a sharp eye on weather patterns. Agrolatam’s August 13 weather update noted that much of the central and northeastern U.S. agriculture regions remain at risk for brief, episodic strong winds between August 19 and 20. While these winds probably won’t match the longevity or scope of a true derecho, forecasters warn that even short-lived but intense windstorms can damage crops and infrastructure if communities and farmers aren’t prepared.

Recent research highlighted by Climate Central makes clear that the central U.S. remains a global hotspot for these kinds of destructive, straight-line winds, especially from May through August. Climatologists are concerned that extreme weather events—specifically large, long-lived derechos—are projected to become even more frequent and intense in the coming decades as the climate continues to warm. That means the kind of citywide recovery efforts underway in Houston could become more commonplace elsewhere in the United States.

Listeners, a fast-moving, long-lived windstorm ripped across the Northern Plains late Monday into early Tuesday, meeting the classic hallmarks of a derecho: a continuous swath of destructive straight-line winds over hundreds of miles with embedded severe gusts over 75 mph. According to NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center guidance referenced by USA Today and AOL, forecasters anticipated an organized line forming in western South Dakota and racing east across eastern South Dakota into southwest Minnesota and northwest Iowa, with hurricane-force wind gusts possible, scattered tornadoes, and large hail. USA Today reports the highest risk focused from Aberdeen and Watertown to Brookings and Marshall, with the line likely pushing toward the Upper Mississippi Valley overnight.

Forecasters described the setup as storms riding the northern edge of a sprawling heat dome, with a surging cold front helping storms congeal into a bowing line capable of widespread wind damage. AOL’s forecast brief noted that multiple 75+ mph gusts are typically required within one storm complex for derecho classification, and warned of numerous power outages, downed trees, and structural damage along the corridor. FOX Weather, cited by USA Today, emphasized that straight-line winds in these events can mimic tornado damage across a much wider path, urging rapid sheltering once severe thunderstorm warnings are issued.

Social media and independent forecasters tracked the development Monday. The Weather On The Go channel highlighted the primary hazard as damaging winds from eastern North Dakota into Minnesota, with hail and a very low tornado threat early in the day, before the nocturnal convective surge increased wind risks into the night. Texas Storm Chasers separately documented Monday evening clusters sweeping southeast in the Southern Plains; while significant in their own right, those storms were distinct from the Northern Plains windstorm.

By early Tuesday, the evolving complex was expected to reach into Wisconsin and northern Illinois, with lingering severe wind potential. USA Today underscored the moderate-to-significant risk category over eastern South Dakota and adjacent Minnesota, the corridor most favored for concentrated hurricane-force gusts. If post-event surveys verify a continuous swath of damaging winds at least 400 miles long and 60 miles wide with multiple 75+ mph reports tied to the same convective system, this event would be logged as a derecho under widely used criteria described by severe-weather researchers and relayed by AOL’s explainer.

For listeners in the affected path, meteorologists stressed layered alerting—smartphone alerts and NOAA Weather Radio—to catch overnight warnings, and immediate movement to sturdy shelter when warnings are issued. Mobile and manufactured homes are especially vulnerable in derechos due to the potential for extreme straight-line winds, a risk reiterated in the storm briefings.

A destructive derecho swept through portions of the Northern Plains and Upper Midwest this past week, unleashing hurricane-force winds, widespread power outages, and significant damage from South Dakota through Iowa and into Minnesota. The violent line of storms began developing late Monday and intensified overnight into early Tuesday, with the National Weather Service confirming derecho criteria due to the storm’s long track and severe wind gusts. According to Fox Weather and multiple meteorological sources, the highest measured gusts were 99 mph in Sioux Center, Iowa, and 92 mph in Spencer, Iowa. Other hard-hit locations included Irene and Parker in South Dakota, where winds exceeded 85 mph. Tornadoes were also reported in the Gregory and Watertown areas of South Dakota, compounding the destructive impact.

FOX Weather Storm Tracker Brandon Copic documented some of the intensity on the ground, showing streets blocked by downed trees and power lines in Hudson, South Dakota. The system, fueled in part by a powerful heat dome over the central U.S., organized rapidly into a dense line of severe thunderstorms, unleashing winds equivalent to a Category 2 hurricane. These straight-line winds are particularly dangerous, as emphasized by FOX Weather meteorologist Stephen Morgan, who cautioned that many underestimate the power of derechos compared to tornadoes, despite the massive swaths of damage they produce.

Throughout the event, power infrastructure suffered extensively. At the height of the storm, more than 100,000 outages were reported in Minnesota, and nearly 30,000 in Iowa, leaving tens of thousands in darkness as crews worked around the clock to restore service, according to multiple reports, including coverage from AOL and local news affiliates. In addition to infrastructure damage, the derecho felled countless trees across urban and rural landscapes, and officials in several states urged residents to remain alert for falling debris and unstable power lines in the storm’s aftermath.

Meteorologists with NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center classified this event as potentially the second major derecho to strike the Northern Plains just this summer. In late June, a similar storm system impacted North Dakota and northern Minnesota, further highlighting an active severe weather pattern for the region this year. Derechos are relatively rare but most likely across the Great Plains and Midwest in late spring and summer, often forming in association with strong cold fronts and high atmospheric instability.

The National Weather Service advises that while tornadoes and hail are significant dangers in these systems, the vast majority of widespread damage from derechos comes from the straight-line winds themselves, which can level trees, damage homes, overturn vehicles, and down power lines along paths hundreds of miles long. In response, officials urge everyone in high-risk zones to have multiple methods for receiving weather warnings, avoid travel during severe events, and always seek sturdy shelter immediately when warnings are issued.

Listeners, this week brought another intense and dangerous derecho event across parts of the northern Plains and Midwest. Late Monday and into Tuesday morning, explosive lines of thunderstorms unleashed widespread, long-lived, and destructive winds, with gusts exceeding 75 miles per hour. Forecasters at NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center had warned that this storm system would sweep through the Dakotas into Minnesota, targeting cities like Aberdeen, Watertown, and Brookings in South Dakota, and Marshall, Minnesota, with a particularly high risk for severe weather.

FOX Weather Meteorologist Stephen Morgan explained that these straight-line wind events, known as derechos, can cause destruction similar to tornadoes, but over a much larger area, making them especially dangerous. These recent storms were driven by a strong cold front barreling southeast, setting off severe thunderstorms across the region. According to an AOL News report, the storm left a trail of downed trees, power outages, and widespread structural damage as it marched east overnight.

In southeastern South Dakota, winds were some of the strongest ever recorded for this type of event. Tri-State Livestock News described gusts soaring to 120 miles per hour, which toppled buildings, splintered trees, and left a swath of communities with significant cleanup challenges. Watertown, in particular, experienced both tornado and derecho impacts within the same 24-hour period, causing further destruction, including at least one building completely destroyed by a tornado before the straight-line winds roared through.

The severe weather didn’t stop in South Dakota. As the system moved east, overnight storms powered through into Wisconsin and northern Illinois, maintaining their intensity and continuing to pose threats of damaging winds, hail, and isolated tornadoes.

Meteorologists emphasized the importance of taking all severe thunderstorm warnings seriously. Straight-line wind gusts in derechos not only flatten crops and uproot large trees, but they can also peel away roofs, send debris flying, and bring down power lines, sometimes over hundreds of miles.

With severe weather season still underway, forecasters continue to urge vigilance across the Midwest and Plains. Listeners should stay alert for watches and warnings, particularly when atmospheric setups favor these rare but very destructive wind storms.

A powerful derecho tore across Iowa and neighboring states Monday night into Tuesday, July 29, 2025, in a dramatic episode of widespread destructive weather now officially confirmed by the National Weather Service as a derecho event. Winds in northwest Iowa reached up to 99 miles per hour, with meteorologist Alexis Jimenez describing the event as a “land hurricane,” a term sometimes used for these exceptionally long-lived and damaging windstorms, according to Radio Iowa.

The line of severe thunderstorms that began forming in southeast South Dakota and northwest Iowa rapidly merged and intensified, creating a massive bow-shaped system visible on radar. The strongest winds battered northern and eastern Iowa, with damage reports streaming in from numerous communities, including Carroll, Waterloo, Cedar Rapids, and Des Moines. In addition to wind damage, parts of Iowa broke rainfall records, with Des Moines surpassing its July precipitation high, tallying 10.62 inches for the month, KSCH reported.

As this derecho charged eastward into the Tri-State area of Iowa, Illinois, and Missouri, winds diminished but still knocked out power to thousands, especially around Quincy, Illinois. By definition, this derecho qualified due to a wind damage swath extending over 240 miles, with gusts above 58 mph throughout much of its length, as explained by KTVO News.

Cleanup continues in many hard-hit Iowa communities, with early estimates suggesting several days or more will be needed to fully restore power and clear debris. Many residents woke Tuesday and Wednesday mornings to uprooted trees, damaged property, and flooded low-lying areas. The Storm Prediction Center designated this event as a derecho after confirming the exceptional size, longevity, and wind impact.

Derechos remain uncommon but most frequently strike the Midwest and Plains during the hot, humid periods of midsummer. Meteorologists like Gino Izzi of the National Weather Service emphasize how quickly conditions can escalate, advising listeners to stay alert for severe weather alerts, especially during July and August.

Derechos like the one this week demonstrate the power of straight-line winds, which unlike tornadoes, can knock down trees, power lines, and cause structural damage over hundreds of miles in just a few hours. This most recent episode follows a pattern of severe weather throughout the Central U.S. in midsummer, including several consecutive nights of damaging storms and oppressive heat indexes above 110 degrees in Iowa. The region is now expecting calmer, drier weather for the upcoming days, providing an opportunity for recovery.

Listeners, an extraordinary and potentially historic weather event unfolded last night and into today across the northern Plains, as a rare derecho surged through parts of South Dakota and Minnesota. According to CNN, forecasters began issuing urgent warnings throughout Monday as a long, powerful line of thunderstorms organized into a derecho—a widespread, fast-moving windstorm capable of hurricane-force gusts and immense damage. This particular event was driven by the intense July heat and humidity that set the stage for explosive thunderstorm development.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Storm Prediction Center had placed a Moderate Risk over the region, highlighting the high likelihood for destructive straight-line winds, some possibly exceeding 75 miles per hour. Fox Weather reported that embedded tornadoes and very large hail accompanied the hurricane-force winds, turning farmland and entire communities into potential danger zones. In Gregory, South Dakota, a tornado briefly touched down, exemplifying the multifaceted threats produced by this evolving derecho.

Throughout the late evening, severe weather alarms blared, and meteorologists tracked the advancing squall as it barreled eastward. According to DTN Progressive Farmer, widespread reports of structural damage, power outages, and toppled trees poured in overnight, primarily from eastern South Dakota and southwestern Minnesota. Convective Chronicles, a well-known severe weather observer, emphasized that the set of atmospheric ingredients was so potent that the line of storms not only lasted into the overnight hours but maintained damaging winds as it raced across state lines.

Major cities along the storm’s path experienced brief but intense conditions, including wind gusts near 80 miles per hour in open areas, heavy rainfall causing localized flash floods, and hail that shredded crops and damaged roofs. Emergency management officers in several counties urged residents to stay sheltered and avoid unnecessary travel, as debris and downed power lines blocked major roadways. Regional utilities dispatched crews early this morning, as tens of thousands temporarily lost electricity—a stark reminder of the sheer power of summertime derechos.

By sunrise, the derecho had weakened as it pushed further east, but clean-up efforts were just beginning. Social media shared images of mangled grain bins, uprooted trees lying across main streets, and farm fields flattened in a matter of minutes. Agricultural experts are assessing the extent of the crop and equipment losses, while local officials warn the recovery could take weeks in some rural areas.

Listeners, this derecho will likely be studied for its rapid intensification and unusually broad swath of destruction. Severe weather like this serves as a crucial reminder to heed warnings and stay prepared during peak storm season.
