...A BRIEF FUNNEL CLOUD OR LANDSPOUT TORNADO POSSIBLE IN
ASSOCIATION WITH A LIFTING FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS THE AREA...

As a surface warm front lifts north across the area, a brief
funnel cloud or landspout tornado will be possible with any
stronger thunderstorm that quickly develops. Although typically
weaker and shorter lived than tornadoes associated with organized
supercell thunderstorms, landspout tornadoes can still cause
injury or minor damage. Landspouts develop as a surface front or
wind shift line interact with a towering cumulus cloud or
developing thunderstorms. Landspouts are not usually associated
with a wall cloud and are often difficult to detect with weather
radar.

If a landspout is sighted, first take any necessary tornado
safety precautions, and then report the landspout activity to the
National Weather Service in Hastings and local law enforcement.
